MOORHEAD, Minn. (AP) — Moorhead-based 702 Communications has laid off 15 employees and closed its retail office in Wahpeton, N.D.
The moves announced Tuesday are part of company restructuring. Sales and service manager Brian Crommett says the layoffs represent one-third of the 45 people employed by the 10-year-old company.
He says 702 Communications is moving away from telephone and Internet service for residential customers. The company recently acquired Internet provider GoMoorhead will now focus its efforts on wholesale business to other large service providers, GoMoorhead and business clients.
Crommett says 702 Communications will continue to provide service to its current telephone and Internet customers in the Fargo-Moorhead and Wahpeton-Breckenridge markets.
