Vauxhall plans to cut a further 250 jobs at its Ellesmere Port factory, just months after saying it would slash 400 staff at the site. The car manufacturer, which was bought by Peugeot-owner PSA Group in a £1.9bn deal last year, said the move was designed to drive the "recovery of plant productivity".
Vauxhall has announced that it will cut a further 250 jobs from its Ellesmere Port factory, following 400 redundancies in 2017. The British car manufacturer was purchased last year by French Groupe PSA, which is made up of the Citroen, Peugeot and DS brands.
Vauxhall said Astra production would continue at its facility, but that production would be downgraded from operating two shifts to one shift per day.
It was revealed last year that Ellesmere Port’s cost efficiency was lower than other plants within the group, which includes its existing brands, Peugeot, Citroen and DS. PSA aims to return Vauxhall and Opel to profit by 2020.
PSA Group boss Carlos Tavares said late last year that he has no intention to close any company factories during this process. He revealed that Vauxhall and Opel would shift to using PSA platforms to enhance research and development sustainability.
