“We have low asset use in the plant and redundant operations, which negatively impacts the efficiency of our supply chain network. Closing the Marion and Morral facilities is part of our efforts to optimise the company’s supply chain,” a spokesperson for the firm said.
Production will be moved to “other plants in the company that have similar capabilities”, she added.
