AUSTIN, TEXAS — 3M, the Minnesota-based manufacturer best known for office products like Post-It notes and Scotch tape, will close its 220,000-square-foot plant in north Austin by the end of 2019. The property will be marketed for sale once it closes. According to the Minneapolis Star Tribune, the closing will impact approximately 120 jobs, though laid-off employees can apply for positions at 3M in other locations.
