Venice - Sarasota County's largest manufacturing employer has laid off 300 workers because of a perfect storm in the housing industry.
Custom window maker PGT Incorporated had cut 180 jobs last year as well, contributing to a 40-percent workforce reduction.

It posted a fourth-quarter loss of 4 million dollars.
