FEARS were growing last night for more than 300 factory jobs after receivers closed its sister company.
Home Doors GB, in Peterlee, County Durham, is a subsidiary of West Midlands-based BHD, which went into receivership earlier this month.
All BHD's subsidiaries are in the hands of receivers at KPMG, who announced yesterday that Portland Conservatories, in Manchester, was to be closed because no buyer could be found. The closure will cost 70 jobs.
The move casts doubt over the future of the Peterlee factory.
