Italian manufacturing production relocation crises

Overview

Italian manufacturing companies Natuzzi and Ficomirrors have faced industrial crises driven by production relocation. At Natuzzi, unions reported delayed wages and the transfer of production to Romania, leaving only two of five Italian sites operational.

Regarding Ficomirrors in Morcone, the company initially planned to transfer mirror production for the Fiat Ducato to Poland, threatening 210 jobs. However, following negotiations at the Prefecture, management from the Ficosa Group proposed an industrial reconversion. While the plant will stop producing Fiat Ducato components by the second half of 2029, the company intends to pivot toward aerospace equipment and renewable energy production. Labor unions are seeking further discussions with the Campania Region to ensure employment stability during this transition.
