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 German supermarket chain Aldi announced the opening of several new supermarkets in Spain (currently counting 308 supermarkets) and the consequent creation of 800 jobs during 2020. This business expansion will increase its workforce by 20%. There will be recruitments for high and low qualified occupations, but 90% of new jobs will be supermarket clerk profiles. The new opening will be mostly in Andalusia, Murcia, Valencia, Barcelona and Madrid.
