The Winston Salem, N.C.-based company, which was spun off from food maker Sara Lee Corp. in 2006, said it is reorganizing its distribution system. The work done at the two facilities will be transferred to facilities in North Carolina and Virginia.

The closures will mean the loss of 155 jobs. Workers will be given severance benefits and help in finding new jobs, according to the company.
