Description

American company Cocal Cola has announced a restructuring in France and the closure of its sites of Combs-la-Ville and Salon-de-Provence. This programme includes the suppression of 142 jobs by 2007. Sales have decreased by 3% in France, and competition from Hard discounters had an influence on the results of the soft drinks company.
