Torstar Corp. has signed a deal to sell the land and buildings that had housed its printing plant to an unidentified buyer for $54.25 million.
The newspaper publisher stopped the presses at the Vaughan, Ont., plant, north of Toronto, in July and shifted the work to Transcontinental.
Torstar says the deal to sell the property is subject to customary closing conditions and adjustments and expects to close the agreement late in the third quarter or early in the fourth quarter.
Back in January, Torstar said about 220 full-time employees and 65 part-time staff would be affected when it announced its plan to sell the printing plant and outsource the work to Transcontinental, Canada's largest commercial printing company.
