Statement regarding DHL, November 10, 2008
“We are extremely disappointed to learn about DHL’s decision to discontinue its domestic delivery service in the United States. This is heart-breaking news for the city of Wilmington and Southwest Ohio.
“While our DHL Economic Task Force, organized by Lieutenant Governor Lee Fisher and Wilmington Mayor David Raizk, had worked for a different outcome, we will now focus on doing everything we can to help the affected workers, their families and their communities. Our workforce investment boards across the region have come together to offer job placement and retraining resources to those that need it, and our Wilmington Business Resource Center is open to anyone looking for business assistance and guidance.
“We stand ready to support the people of Southwest Ohio in whatever way we can, and we will continue our charge to work every day to grow jobs in Ohio.”
