The sale is part of a company-wide restructuring
Merck & Co. plans to sell its Miami Lakes manufacturing and packaging
plant as part of a company-wide restructuring process. The firm will
cut 15,000 jobs globally. The 134,619-square-foot Miami Lakes plant at
13900 NW 57th Court is the company’s only plant in Florida. It has been
owned by Schering-Plough since 1989 and is on a six-acre site. According

packaging of pharmaceutical and consumer care products. The plan is to
sell the plant as an operating entity by the end of this year. [SFBJ]
