The company did not disclose how many jobs this would affect when contacted by just-food.
In a statement, Bimbo said it is building a new production centre for bread at a site in Guadalajara, near Madrid. It expects the facility to be operational early next year. The move would allow it to become a “market leader in baking”, it added.
