The loss of major business from a significant customer contributed to the Irish unit of computer part manufacturer, Celestica plunging into the red in 2013.

JOB numbers at the manufacturing company Celestica have rebounded after the firm recorded a doubling of revenues in 2010 and a return to profit.

RESTRUCTURING costs totalling €2.1m relating to a Canadian-owned firm reducing almost half of its workforce contributed to it going into the red last year.
