Description
Ossabois, a firm that constructs wooden houses, has announced that it is to create 127 new jobs in Vecoux with the opening of a new site. The jobs will be created between January 2008 and January 2011. The new plant will be based at the former site of SEB, a French company that manufactures household appliances. SEB closed down the site in January 2004 due to a decline in sales. Approximately 50 of the jobs at the Ossabois site will be reserved for employees of SEB who worked at the unit prior to the closure.
