Description

The French mail order company La Maison de Valérie is to reduce its workforce by 110 jobs. This is due to a drop in sales of furniture, interior decoration and electrical devices. The measure aims at making the company profitable and includes the cut of 126 as well as the creation of 16 new jobs. Procurement will be outsourced and the factory outlet will be closed. There is no information on when the plan will be implemented.
