Volkswagen plans to sell its plant in Sučany near Martin. According to the information available so far, however, the factory, which produces components for dozens of passenger car models, should not shut down. The potential buyer is its sister company MAN, a truck manufacturer. ekonomika.pravda.sk ↗
The plant is currently undergoing a transformation process. Its existing production of components for passenger cars is to be gradually changed, and in the future the company could focus mainly on parts for trucks. Such a change would mean a transfer to a different owner as well as an adjustment of the production programme. teraz.sk ↗
Approximately 700 people work at the Martin plant. The future of their jobs is not yet clear. A change of owner and of production may affect working conditions and the level of wages. According to information from the industry, moving part of the production of components for passenger vehicles to other countries, including China, is also being considered. hnonline.sk ↗
Volkswagen is thus working out to what extent the current production at the plant will be retained and what tasks the new owner will take on. The plant supplies components for several car models, and its continued operation will depend on an agreement on future cooperation with MAN. dennikn.sk ↗
The specific terms of the sale, the scope of the transformation and the final impact on employees have not yet been announced. Further developments will be shown by negotiations on the ownership of the plant and the planned shift to the production of parts for trucks. aktuality.sk ↗
