PSA could close Aulnay site by year-end

Could decide to close as early as September in response to ongoing strike action at the site.

PSA Peugeot-Citroën could close its Aulnay facility on the outskirts of Paris (France) as early as September, reports Bloomberg News. Sources have told the news service that the decision could be taken in response to ongoing strike action at the site. However, PSA spokesperson Jean-Baptiste Mounier said, "the intention of Peugeot management is to go on producing the [Citroën] C3 at Aulnay to satisfy the demand of its customers while accompanying its workers in their transition to other careers."
