Baby formula maker Reckitt said supplies of some of its nutrition products are likely to be affected by a tornado that damaged one of its warehouses in Mount Vernon, Indiana.
Reckitt, a British consumer goods company, owns Mead Johnson Nutrition, the maker of Enfamil baby formula products. Reckitt on Wednesday said that the tornado, which struck on July 9, caused "significant damage" to the warehouse, which the company called "an important site for the Mead Johnson Nutrition business." The facility, which is operated by a contractor, houses both raw materials and finished products.
A cluster of at least four tornadoes whipped up by the remnants of Hurricane Beryl barreled through Indiana's southwestern corner, with winds up to 140 mph.
