MILWAUKEE -- Snap-on's Milwaukee manufacturing facility will reopen Tuesday night, April 7 to fulfill "critical" orders for the U.S. Military, a spokesperson with the company said.
The plant was closed Friday, April 3 for deep cleaning after a spokesperson reported a total of three diagnosed and unrelated cases of COVID-19 among workers.
In addition to filling orders for the military, employees will be making repairs to garages and maintenance facilities that service transportation fleets -- crucial activities in the continued function of emergency services, food delivery, distribution of medical supplies and other essential needs during the pandemic.
