09 August, 2012 - Bumble Bee Foods is putting its Puerto Rico property and equipment on the auction block after pulling the plug on its local packing operation earlier this year.

The sale of Bumble Bee’s property (including a 174,000 square-foot enclosed structure), in addition to select pieces of surplus production and facilities support equipment, will take place for pre-approved parties on 12 September from 7 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. A second global online piecemeal auction will occur from 12 September (8 a.m.) until 13 September 13.
