As announced on 23 July 2020, the German luxury sportswear company Bogner will cut 150 jobs in Germany due to internal restructuring within the next two years. The administration in Munich will be mainly affected by the decision, 80 jobs are to be cut there until mid-2021. Furthermore, Bogner intends to outsource its logistics site in Heimstetten with 70 employees to an external service provider within the next two years. The company had already planned a ‘Performance Programme’ before the COVID-19 crisis. However, the current crisis accelerated the programme’s implementation.
