ERIE, Pa. — Bush Industries Inc. plans to cut about

90 of the 270 jobs at its suburban Erie facility in February, the company said Wednesday.

The maker and seller of ready-to-assemble furniture plans to consolidate some of its operations to its headquarters in Jamestown, N.Y.
“As economic conditions change, so must all successful businesses, and Bush Industries is no exception,” said James L. Sherbert, company president and CEO. “We continue to expand our manufacturing and supply chain in Asia and Europe, which requires us to consolidate some domestic operations.”

All distribution and logistics operations will remain in Erie, along with certain manufacturing operations, the company said.
