In mid June Dutch food group Vion announced that it would be cutting jobs in the UK, after “disappointing results” in 2011.
The firm said that, after an “intensive review of its long-term strategy”, it planned to cut 340 job cuts at Vion Food Netherlands and 290 job cuts at Vion Food Germany. The management said it was now focusing on the future of the UK arm of its business.
Rob Smith, head of marketing and communications at Vion Food UK, told FoodManufacture.co.uk: “Because of the scope and complexity of our business in the UK it will take more time to analyse our strategic options and we can’t comment on the future of any specific part of the business.”
