The Canadian company that processed plant-based milk linked to a deadly listeria outbreak has permanently closed all four of its plants.

A spokesperson for Toronto-based Joriki said the closures meant the majority of Joriki’s employees were laid off when it shuttered its two plants in Ontario, one in B.C. and one in Pennsylvania owned by a subsidiary.
