Description

The biggest European producer of piano and grand piano cases and other wooden parts of piano and grand piano is to dismiss over 200 people at its plant in Týniště nad Orlicí. The main reason is the termination of loss-making production for German customers. About 50 displaced workers may be reemployed by the major owner — the company Petrof and the second co-owner — the company Bohemia Piana.
