The furniture manufacturer is a major employer on the lakeshore

Office furniture manufacturer MillerKnoll is closing its plant in Norton Shores near Muskegon.

The plant was formerly operated by Knoll before its merger with Herman Miller in 2021.

The company is consolidating production into two facilities in Spring Lake Township to improve efficiency.

The relocation will happen over the next two years, starting this summer.

The majority of the 250 employees at the Muskegon facility will be offered the opportunity to relocate to the Spring Lake locations.

A spokesperson says as a longstanding employer in West Michigan, MillerKnoll is committed to supporting its employees in the lakeshore community throughout this transition and will provide support and resources to all affected employees.
