Ink Runs Dry At BIC Pens Plant: 'We dropped the ball' - CEO

 Around 19 jobs could be lost at BIC Pens after the Chief Executive is penning lay-off proposal for workers.

Workers at the company's Auckland plant have been told it is instead intending to import pens from overseas.
Bic will now enter into a one-week consultation period with staff, and it is expected the jobs could be gone by early next year.
