Well, yeah, a labor dispute because Ampad wanted to break the union contracts and fire everybody.

…and even with the renegotiated salaries the company couldn’t stay afloat with mounting debt and competition from larger companies like Staples. They restructured and are part of a larger parent company today. Still no definitive word on their employee count today. Somewhere between 1,000 and 5,000.
