Quad's TN Plant a Victim of Lost Insert Work

All production will wrap up on or before March 15, according to Claire Ho, director of corporate communications for Sussex, WI-based Quad/Graphics. Ho told The Tennessean that USA Weekend and Parade production represent about one-third of the facility's total volume.

The decision was announced in a letter to vendors from David Blais, executive vice president of global procurement and platform strategy for Quad/Graphics. Blais said that Gannett's decision to cease publication of USA Weekend effective with the Dec. 28 issue was unexpected.
