Rennicks sale to see loss of 13 jobs

Thirteen jobs are to go in Dublin as result of traffic group Rennicks deciding to sell its road-sign manufacturing division to a UK firm.

Rennicks has announced it has entered into an agreement to sell its Irish road- traffic sign business, Rennicks Sign Manufacturing, to UK rival Morelock Signs for an undisclosed sum. The company cited a drop in demand.

The move will result in the production activities of both companies being consolidated into Morelock’s business in the UK’s west midlands factory. This will mean around 13 employees will be made redundant at Rennicks manufacturing site in Kilbride, Dublin.
