Van Hool and Schmitz Move Forward with Collaboration: Focus on Bus Activities and Employment Opportunities
The collaboration with Dutch company VDL is progressing positively, with a focus on bus activities rather than trailer production. This strategic decision indicates a clear direction for both companies as they move forward with their respective business plans. According to ACLVB, the first group of employees is expected to return on Monday as Van Hool’s trailer division starts operating in phases. While there is no specific number mentioned regarding employment opportunities at Schmitz, the company had previously expressed its intention to hire 350 individuals. The restart of operations signals a positive development for the employees and the industry as a whole.
