A nightmare : Vermont Bread employees waiting for money owed

Mass company shows interest in Vermont Bread

BRATTLEBORO — Vermont Bread Company may be back in business soon. During a meeting of the Vermont Economic Progress Council on Thursday afternoon, the VEPC board approved a Vermont Employment Growth Incentive of nearly $837,000 to East Baking Company of Holyoke, Mass., “for activity to commence May 14,” according to minutes from the meeting. The VEGI incentive provides an annual cash payment to a business that promises to employ a certain number of people at a specific wage level, usually a certain percentage above minimum wage, and make a certain amount in capital investments over seven years. In addition to the incentive, East Baking Company also received approval for a Labor Market Area enhancement, which means the benefit to the company if it meets the benchmarks as promised could be up to $1.2 million.
