Two international companies have plans to lay off employees in Massachusetts soon, the Herald has learned.
AstraZeneca, a London-based pharmaceutical company, will close its Westboro drug manufacturing facility, affecting roughly 180 employees and contractors.
"In an effort to increase efficiencies in our global supply chain, we will be closing our Westboro, Mass., manufacturing facility in late 2015," said company spokeswoman Alisha Martin. "We did not take this decision lightly, and it was made after careful consideration of our business strategy, market indicators and the patients and stakeholders we serve globally."
The Westboro facility was one of three locations around the world that manufactured Pulmicort Respules, an asthma drug.
It was not immediately clear if all 180 positions would be eliminated or transferred to another facility.
In a completely unrelated move, HERE North America, a tech company owned by Nokia, is closing its office in Kendall Square in Cambridge.
The closure will mean the layoffs of 58 employees and the transfers of 64 more.
"After careful consideration and evaluation of a number of business initiatives, HERE decided to close HERE Cambridge," said HERE spokesman Christopher Lawton. "HERE has revised its business plans for 2015, identifying opportunities to further increase efficiency within the organization."
