Description
Klatovy meat processing plant has been closed and all 130 workers are to be dismissed by the end of February 2010. The main reason of the closure is that the owner of the production facility received an offer to sell the premises at a high price. Employees will be given severance pay amounting up to five average monthly wages. The company has a long history dating back to 1899 when the factory was established.
