Notice Concerning Our Subsidiary in Europe: Discontinuation of Production in Sweden
As resolved at the Board of Directors of August 24, 2023, Mitsubishi Logisnext Co., Ltd. ("the Company") hereby announces its intention to discontinue the production at Mitsubishi Logisnext Europe AB in Sweden ("MLE AB"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Mitsubishi Logisnext Europe B.V. ("MLE B.V."), our wholly owned consolidated subsidiary in the Netherlands. This is the result of the consultations with the labor union of MLE AB, announced as "Sharing plan of initiation for Union consultations in European subsidiary"on June 20, 2023.
Rationale for the changes
Since our Company was established in 2017 through a merger between Nichiyu Mitsubishi Forklift Co., Ltd. and UniCarriers Corporation, we have sought to achieve more efficient management operations globally. In Europe, we have been gradually implementing organizational improvements while continuing to integrate our existing businesses. As part of this effort, we have concluded the discontinuation of the production at MLE AB and will consolidate our production mainly under Mitsubishi Logisnext Europe Oy ("MLE OY"), the Finnish subsidiary of MLE B.V.
