Dinuba is losing food industry jobs in coming weeks as premium juice maker Odwalla shuts down their third shift,estimated at around 40 people and Amber Foods, who employs 50, relocates to Fresno.That company puts together fruit salads. Odwalla,owned by Coke, may be a victim of a larger Coke restructuring after the company posted a 14 percent drop in third quarter profits, and in October warned it would miss next year’s profits as well.Dinuba Chamber president Sandy Sills says employees told her of the third shift layoffs. The estimate comes from a company source speaking to this reporter.
