Unilever to shut 3 Dutch plants, cut jobs

Anglo-Dutch consumer products group Unilever NV/Plc said on Tuesday it
plans to close three factories in the Netherlands by the end of 2008
and cut about 474 jobs.

Kees van der Waaij, head of Unilever Nederland, told ANP-Reuters
production would be moved to other plants in Europe and said the
company did not rule out forced redundancies.

The world's third-biggest food and consumer goods company announced in
August it would cut about a tenth of its 180,000 employees and sell
slow-growing businesses in a bid to speed up its recovery and fight
surging food costs.
