ANOTHER 30 jobs have been lost in Runcorn after can manufacturers Nacanco made a quarter of staff working at its factory on the Whitehouse Industrial Estate redundant last week.

Nacanco spokesman Ian Higgins said the redundancies were caused by a fall in demand, but added that the plant itself was not in jeopardy.

"We don't like making people redundant but that is the way business is," he said.
