About 300 employees of Caterpillar Logistics Services Inc., known as Cat Logistics, have been told the company’s Broken Arrow, Oklahoma facility will close at the end of August and they will lose their jobs.
Cat Logistics, a wholly owned subsidiary of Peoria, Ill.-based Caterpillar Inc., began its Tulsa-area operations in 2000. The 70,000-square-foot site at 13505 E. 61st St. is the national repair and distribution center for U.S. Cellular handsets.
Bridget Young, a media relations representative for Caterpillar said “U.S. Cellular is letting its service agreement expire at the end of August and has selected a provider that specializes in the cell phone industry.”
