Wesson Refinery to Close: Beatrice-Hunt-Wesson will close its Wesson oil refinery in Fullerton, eliminating about 100 jobs, a company spokeswoman said. No date was set. The company told workers that the refinery would be closed for “economic and strategic reasons,” the spokeswoman said. The 1,500 employees at Beatrice-Hunt-Wesson’s Fullerton headquarters and another 900 employees--including seasonal employees--at the tomato-processing and can-making plants also in Fullerton are not affected.
