In collaboration with the city’s mayor and other local stakeholders, Alixio aims to identify and implement “job-creating projects” in order to secure the future of the 270 employees and the local community.

A joint effort to save jobs

The imminent closure of the Valeo factory in La Suze-sur-Sarthe represents a significant threat for the 270 employees who work on the site. Faced with this critical situation, Mayor Emmanuel d’Aillières took the lead by investing fully in the search for potential buyers. He called on Alixio Revitalia, a firm of experts renowned for its ability to manage economic and social transitions, in order to find viable solutions.

The challenges to be met

The task is far from simple. In addition to finding a buyer for the factory, we must ensure that the latter is capable of maintaining or even increasing the number of current jobs. Valeo, as a global leader in the automotive industry, offers several job opportunities, but the local context requires innovative solutions adapted to the specificities of the labor market in La Suze-sur-Sarthe.

They work together with Alixio to identify viable and sustainable alternatives that can provide new impetus to the local economy.

A social and economic impact

The closure of the factory would not only affect the direct workers, but also all local businesses and businesses that depend on the economic activity generated by the site. Thus, finding an acceptable solution is imperative to preserve the economic vitality of La Suze-sur-Sarthe.

Encouraging prospects

Despite the challenge, Emmanuel d’Aillières remains confident in Alixio’s abilities to find a buyer capable of revitalizing the Valeo factory. Discussions are underway, and although progress is still limited, the commitment and expertise involved give hope for positive results in the medium term.
