William Demant (CPH:WDH) plans to shift production from the U.S. and Denmark to Poland and Mexico to cut costs by around $30 million (DKK200 million) a year, the Danish hearing aid maker said today.
A plant in Eagan, Minn., has already closed and operations in Thisted, Denmark, are slated to be moved to Poland before the end of 2018, meaning job cuts for about 200 workers there, Demant said in its 1st-half earnings release.
