Description
Jarlan, a garment manufacturer, has filed for bankruptcy in December 2004; some 1,100 jobs are threatened. The company has accumulated debts over the preceding two years due to competition by low-cost garment producers in China and Bangladesh and to reduced orders by European buyers. The workers received a 3-month notice of termination of contract.
