Danish Crown Plans to Close Aalborg Meatball Factory, Relocate Production
Danish Crown, a major meat cooperative, has announced plans to gradually close its meatball production facility in Aalborg, Denmark, by 2028. The decision is driven by the limited development opportunities at the current site due to its location in a densely populated residential area. Production will be relocated to other facilities, with the Vejle plant in southern Jutland being the preferred option. The closure will affect 140 employees, most of whom will be offered positions at other Danish Crown sites. This move is part of a broader reorganization within the company, which includes dividing its operations into three separate divisions.
