Fresno Bee outsourcing some ad production work to India

Last update: July 18, 2007 - 2:26 PM

FRESNO, Calif. — The Fresno Bee will send some advertising production work to India, cutting seven of 31 jobs in its advertising design department, according to the newspaper.

Express KCS, which has offices in San Jose, London and near New Delhi, India's capital, will take over the work. Most of the newspaper's advertising services will not be affected, Ken Hatfield, the newspaper's vice president of communications and public affairs said Tuesday. Hatfield said the job cuts will begin in September.

Hatfield said customers will continue to work with sales, marketing and design employees in Fresno.

The Bee is the only McClatchy newspaper using Express KCS's services.
