On 25th November 2010, the car manufacturer PSA Peugeot-Citroën announced the creation of 450 positions in the company's Rennes plant for a duration of six months (200 temporary workers and 250 fixed-term contracts). These new positions have been created as a result of the increase in sales of the car maker's new 508 model.
