Business news : Adidas to Close Only China Factory

Adidas AG has decided to close its only apparel factory in China as part of its plan to reconsolidate its global resources. The factory in China's coastal city of Suzhou will be closed at the end of October, the company told Reuters.

Spokeswoman Sabrina Cheung said in an email China remained a key market for sourcing goods for Germany-based Adidas with more than 300 supplier partners in the country. The Suzhou Adidas factory employs about 160 workers who were notified of the closure a few months ago and who will receive a benefits package, Cheung said.
