A report in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel says that Briggs & Stratton plans to move some production from its Wauwatosa, Wisconsin facility to New York by the end of August.

It says that production of its lawn tractor, residential zero-turn mower, snow thrower and pressure washer products will move.

"Not all production is leaving the Wauwatosa site," states the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. "Standby generators and engine components production, along with other support areas will stay at the Wauwatosa facility."

The paper says that the company is making the move "to streamline its production and distribution of products." The new facility is within 10 miles of another B&S facility making similar products.

According to a news release seen by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel employees in Wisconsin who will be affected by the move will be given a 60-day notice. The employees will stay with the company until the end of August.
