Lockheed shutting Sikorsky Coatesville
Tuesday, 24 August 2021

“Lockheed Martin has made a final decision to exit its Coatesville facility and consolidate the work in other Lockheed Martin locations due to a downturn in the commercial helicopter sector. Despite close collaboration with our commercial customers, federal, state and local officials, we were unable to secure enough additional work to sustain operations. Lockheed Martin continues to have a strong presence and commitment to our workforce, suppliers, and customers across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the greater Delaware Valley. We have been in contact with the Governor, the White House, Secretary Raimondo and other officials. We thank them for their support for our Coatesville workforce and look forward to working together to ensure training and reemployment opportunities for all existing employees and a positive future for the community.” said a Lockheed Martin spokesman.
