PSA AULNAY

The closing of the plant, announced in July 2012, came as a painful shock for the northern suburb of Aulnay-sous-Bois. Faced with a shrinking domestic market and burning through cash, Peugeot is shutting the plant at a cost of 3,000 jobs, part of a restructuring plan meant to save 1.5 billion euros, or $2.1 billion, by next year.

Produced in 2012 in Paris, France

FRANCE, Rueil-Malmaison : A protester get gazed by Anti-riot police as US Goodyear Tire & Rubber workers demonstrate in front of the group's headquarters in France, in Rueil-Malmaison, a Paris suburb, on February 12, 2013, at the time of an extraordinary central works council on the plan to shut down Goodyear's plant in Amiens, northern France. "Closing the factory is the only option after five years of unsuccessful negotiations," said a French-language statement issued on January 31, 2013 by Goodyear Dunlop Tires France, which employs about 3,200 people in the country across four sites.
