Pure Fishing – the world’s largest fishing tackle company – has made more than half of the employees at one of its top brands redundant.
According to reports in Sweden, 48 jobs – more than half of the 70-strong Abu Garcia workforce at its factory in Svängsta – have lost their jobs. The news was relayed to staff earlier this week. It is not known which parts of the workforce are affected. The company has a long history in the region and has been making reels in the town since the Second World War.
The company has blamed declining sales of its world famous reels as the reason for the job losses. Fredrik Svensson, Ombudsman at the trade union, IF Metall, told Sverige Radio that the news was a ‘sad day’ for the whole region. “The notice has come as a surprise and shock and many employees are very sad and frustrated by the news.”
