Voelkl announced plans to shift ski production to China step by step, driven by needs to cut costs and following the trend already put in place for the snowboard and partial ski manufacturing.
Since negotiations with unions for a moratorium on wages and for additional (unpaid?) overtime failed, Voelkl management will start laying off 9% of their workforce, with more cuts following shortly.
Annually more than 60000 pairs of skis are already manufactured in China by K2, the US parent holding.
