Restructuring events
European Restructuring Monitor (ERM)
The restructuring events database contains factsheets with data on large-scale restructuring events reported in the principal national media and company websites in each EU Member State. This database was created in 2002.
Unilever has confirmed plans to close the Colman's Mustard factory in Norwich. All 113 jobs at the site will be lost and production will be moved to sites in Burton on Trent and also in Germany. Plans had initially been revealed in January 2018, though at that stage the timeframe for the closure was not known. It has now been announced that the process of closure will begin in the autumn of 2018 and continue to the end of 2019. The employees at the Norwich site have been put at risk of redundancy.
