Restructuring events
European Restructuring Monitor (ERM)
The restructuring events database contains factsheets with data on large-scale restructuring events reported in the principal national media and company websites in each EU Member State. This database was created in 2002.
The closure of the Grampian Country Foods factory in Buckie is to result in 330 workers losing their jobs. However at the same time the company indicated that a £16 million redevelopment of its site at Broxburn near Edinburgh, will create 200 jobs. Its expansion in Broxburn will increase the workforce to 1,060 and increase production of bacon, sausages, haggis and other pork products. The company intends to relocate the pork processing operations at Buckie, Morayshire, and part of the sausage manufacturing operations at Elmswell in Suffolk to Broxburn.
