Description
Mobidecor is a French specialist in collective space furniture, that realizes a turnover of approximately €50 million and employs 360 workers. The company is relocating several product lines to its Bonson facility and other French production sites, driven by its commitment to addressing environmental, social, and economic concerns. The Bonson site is the group's administrative center and with a €1 million investment, Mobidecor aims to enhance it, introducing welding and bending robots and a new paint line. The relocation includes bringing back the production of bunk beds, previously manufactured in Portugal, and stools, previously subcontracted in Poland.
