Kellogg Co. is preparing to restart production at four U.S. cereal plants where output has come to a halt as workers strike for better pay and benefits.
The facilities are in “various stages of preparing for startup,” Kellogg spokesperson Kris Bahner said in an emailed statement. The company didn’t say specifically when production would resume. “We are implementing contingency plans to mitigate supply disruptions, including using salaried employees and third-party resources to produce food.”
