BREST, FRANCE – Jabil Circuit will close, sell or otherwise restructure its plant here, a local paper reported this week.
Ouest France is reporting the site’s revenues are 25% below expectations. The plant employs about 300 workers, down from 515 a year ago, when Alcatel-Lucent reportedly moved production from the site to a Solectron (now Flextronics) plant in China.
Jabil acquired the site and its then 700 employees from Alcatel in 2002.
