Sensodyne-maker Haleon to shut UK manufacturing site, with more than 400 jobs hit
Consumer healthcare company Haleon is planning to shut down its manufacturing site in Britain by 2026, which will impact 435 jobs, a spokesperson told Reuters on Tuesday. "Following a strategic review of our global manufacturing capabilities, we have determined that our Maidenhead site is no longer a viable option for the manufacture of our products," the spokesperson said. The making of toothpastes will be transferred to Haleon's hub in Slovakia, while mouthwash production will be moved to a third party contract manufacturer, details of which have yet to be announced.
