Mayr-Melnhof Karton AG: MM Packaging announces closure of Liverpool
plant
29.03.2012 / 11:05
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Mayr-Melnhof Packaging today announced that it is to close its packaging
plant in Liverpool.
In recent years, the team in Liverpool has worked hard to improve the
plant's competitiveness, in order to keep production at the site. However,
the economic situation, latest market developments and the demands of
MM-Packaging's customers have finally led to this difficult decision.
The factory in Liverpool has most recently employed a total of 109
employees.
Customers are not affected by this measure as they are now being supplied
by other parts of the European MMP production network.
Mayr-Melnhof Packaging, the packaging division of MM Group, is the European
market leader in folding cartons. As of December 31st, 2011 the
Mayr-Melnhof Group employed about 8,900 people.
