Chandler: Ingram Micro Closing Facility, Cutting 75 Jobs by Year-End

A Chandler tech facility is shutting down
Ingram Micro Services plans to permanently close its Chandler manufacturing facility by the end of 2026. The closure will eliminate 75 jobs at the site located at 460 N. 54th St. in the 10 Chandler Business Park.
The California-based company filed a WARN notice with the Arizona Department of Economic Security on June 23. The Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification gives state officials advance notice of mass layoffs or plant closings.
What the company said
According to the WARN filing, Ingram Micro will move operations from Chandler to existing locations in Mira Loma, California, and Plainfield, Indiana.
Jeffrey Streb, the company's director of human resources, wrote that Ingram Micro will move operations from Chandler to existing locations in Mira Loma, California, and Plainfield, Indiana. Streb said the move is part of an effort to optimize operations and better serve customers and partners.
Those words came directly from the WARN notice, as reported by the Phoenix Business Journal and USA Today.
Timeline for workers
Job cuts are expected to begin September 25 and continue through December 31. The facility itself is scheduled to close on December 31, according to the filing.
Affected employees work in:
- Configuration
- Logistics
- Repair
- Quality
- Facilities
- Security
- Operations
- Human resources
What the Chandler site does
The Chandler facility is part of Ingram Micro Lifecycle. The division handles used business technology, refurbishes devices, and prepares equipment for reuse or resale, according to company information cited by USA Today.
This is not a semiconductor fabrication plant. It is a lifecycle and aftermarket center that handles technology gear at the end of its first life.
Workers have rights under federal law
Under the federal WARN Act, covered employers must provide 60 calendar days of advance notice before a plant closing or mass layoff, according to the U.S. Department of Labor.
The state job board, AZ Job Connection, can connect affected employees with re-employment services and other state resources as they search for new positions.
Part of a larger Arizona trend
The Ingram Micro closure is one of eight WARN notices filed in Arizona during June 2026. Those eight notices listed 1,154 affected workers across the state, according to USA Today.
That figure was up from May, when four Arizona employers listed 877 affected workers.
The largest June filing came from Lucid Group, which plans to lay off 705 employees at its Casa Grande facility. Other June filings included closures at FedEx, Central Admixture Pharmacy Services, Paragon Space Development Corp., and school operators in Mesa and Lake Havasu City.
Arizona has recorded 103 WARN filings over the past 24 months, affecting 16,642 workers across 87 companies, according to public data tracked by Warnact.io.
What happens to the building
The WARN filing does not say what will happen to the Chandler property after Ingram Micro vacates it. The company did not respond to requests for comment beyond the language in its public filing.
Chandler loses another name from its industrial lineup. The familiar question remains. What happens to the site next, and how much of this work, if any, will stay in Arizona under a different roof.
