Cartamundi to end board game manufacturing at Waterford plant cutting more than 200 jobs

The closure will be phased over a number of months until August 2023

'The factory in Waterford has been suffering losses for many months now and this is not sustainable.'

Boardgame manufacturer Cartamundi is to cease production at its plant in Waterford due to the post-covid decline in demand for board games.

The company has been manufacturing board games and other items in the Waterford plant since 2015 and currently employs 234 people.
