The Brazilian-owned company that produces for brands like Adidas, Fila and nike, He explained that the decision is part of a business plan in which he will reorganize his entire operation in his other factory located in the town of Eldorado, province of Misiones. In addition, they confirmed that the disaffected employees will receive the corresponding compensation.


In this framework, the provincial government detailed: “Despite the offer of help from the provincial and municipal States, the Dass company maintains the decision to order the closure of the plant in the district and its employer, the Adidas Argentina firm, does not issue a statement in this regard. In this unfortunate context, Labor will seek to ensure the situation of the dismissed workers so that the company takes charge of its obligations in accordance with the Law, as has already been achieved on other occasions, with conflicts resolved in the Buenos Aires territory.
In turn, the government of the province of Buenos Aires ratified its will to sustain the sources of work and production of the manufacturing enterprise and announced that it will exhaust “all administrative instances to achieve that objective, as well as to sustain the installed capacity, the safety and hygiene conditions in the plant and machinery with the personnel who guarantee it. “The Buenos Aires State hopes to recover the plant as a productive unit in the immediate future.”
The Coronel Suárez plant had been inaugurated in 2011 on the site of the former Gatic factory. In its first years of activity, it employed up to 1,700 people, but over time it reduced its staff due to various economic factors. Currently, the plant had a team of around 360 workers, who were surprised by the dismissal telegrams.
The reality is that the closure of this plant generated strong concern in the community of Coronel Suárez, since Dass was the second largest employer in the region after the municipality.
Meanwhile, the workers and union delegates of the Union of Footwear Industry Workers (Uticra) expressed their confusion and are demanding stronger state intervention, considering that the crisis is not due to a collapse of the local footwear market, but to strategic decisions of the company. More specifically, the general secretary of Uticra, Agustín Amicone, described the closure as “unjustified”, highlighting that the footwear market does not face a crisis that justifies a decision of such magnitude.
