Alan Ritchey Closes New Jersey Logistics Hub, Lays Off 176 Workers Due to USPS Contract Loss
Alan Ritchey Inc. is closing its logistics facility in Phillipsburg, New Jersey, and laying off 176 workers due to the nonrenewal of a U.S. Postal Service contract. This marks the company's second major workforce reduction in 2026, following a larger layoff in Colorado earlier this year linked to USPS insourcing efforts. The closures highlight the impact of USPS restructuring on third-party logistics providers.
