PECS, HUNGARY – Elcoteq will move production from its Cserkút plant to its nearby Pécs facility in Hungary, according to local Hungarian news sources.
 
The lease on Elcoteq’s plant in Cserkút, which has a reported 50 to 80 employees, is expiring and the company is not renewing it.
 
Elcoteq laid off 1,350 workers at Pécs earlier this year, including 450 full-time employees. While another round of layoffs is reportedly pending, the EMS firm has reduced the number to 700.
