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.
DIY chain Bunnings has announced plans to create 1,000 jobs. The Australian retailer, which owns the Homebase brand, will have 20 pilot stores in the UK by the end of 2017. This is double the originally expected 10 stores, and is in response to a positive reception from customers to stores that have already been opened. The pilot stores will be launched in a range of locations and will include both smaller and larger stores. The success, or otherwise, of the pilot stores will inform the chain's future investment strategy.
