Nissan Motor is considering closing several plants in Japan and overseas to cut costs.

 

 

Sources revealed on Saturday that Nissan Motor Co. is considering shutting down two of its car assembly plants in Japan, as well as overseas facilities such as those in Mexico, as part of its cost-cutting initiative. The sources said Nissan is exploring the possibility of closing its Zushi and Shonan plants in Japan, which would leave the company with just three car assembly plants remaining in the country. Meanwhile, regarding its overseas operations, a source indicated that Nissan is weighing plans to halt production at its South African, Indian, and Argentine factories—and also plans to reduce the number of its Mexican plants.
Nissan Motor Co. on Tuesday unveiled a new round of cost-cutting measures, announcing it will cut about 15% of its workforce and reduce its global production facilities from 17 to 10 plants, as part of efforts to turn the company around and achieve profitability. Nissan is Japan's third-largest automaker. In a statement posted on its website, Nissan said reports suggesting the potential closure of certain factories are purely speculative and are not based on any official company information. The company added: "For now, we will refrain from making further comments on this matter. We remain committed to maintaining transparency with our stakeholders and will promptly share any relevant updates as needed."
