Say Good-bye to Dainese Made in Italy

Dainese, world leader in the manufacture of protective clothing for motorcyclists who also owns Mavet and AGV is shutting down their production plant in Molvena, Italy and are delocalizing production to the North African country of Tunisia where they already have two plants with 500 workers.
Company management has decided to move the entire production line to Tunisia and fabbricate in Italy only a hundred of their top of the line leathers, mainly for professional riders, that include among others Valentino Rossi, Jorge Lorenzo and Max Biaggi.

The restructuring will see the Italian workforce that numbers 250, mostly women, cut by 80 employees who will loose their jobs with rolling layoffs for another 120 workers for the next 12 months with social benefits.
The decision comes following the economic crisis that has caused the slump of motorcycle sales that has impacted on the companies sales that are down over 25% and after negotiations with trade unions, Dainese has agreed to invest two thousand euros in re-training each employee layed off in order to avoid heavy repercussions on the local economy.
Molvena will remain the heart of Dainese and keep only R&D departments and continue work on their D-Air leathers that should be put into production at the end of this year.
