DeLorme lays off 15 workers
By The Mainebiz News Staff
Mapmaker DeLorme has cut 15 employees in its first round of layoffs in nearly a decade.
A spokesman for the Yarmouth-based company said the layoffs are needed to keep DeLorme competitive in a global marketplace, according to the Portland Press Herald. Caleb Mason told the paper that the company is shifting its products from print to digital, and said the company could grow in other areas. The 15 full-time workers laid off Friday were offered severance packages and job retraining.
The company has more than 100 employees, according to the paper.
