Emanuel Boeminghaus reported that the British malt manufacturer Crisp Malt plans, according to industry reports, to close its malt plant in Hamburg-Eidelstedt by the end of March 2027. The company has not officially confirmed the plans so far. The site has an annual production capacity of 110,000 tons. As reasons for the crisis in the malt industry, Boeminghaus cited the significantly decreased demand for Scotch whisky as well as high energy and transport costs. In Germany, around 350,000 tons of annual malt capacity have already been lost. If the Hamburg plant were to close, the loss would rise to around 460,000 tons, according to his contribution. He cited Vinetur from October 10, 2026, as the source. https://t.co/18Do28BQPK #Industrie #Hamburg #Werksschließung (translated)

Emanuel Boeminghaus wrote that the Audi plant in Neckarsulm is threatened with closure. Audi has activated the so-called bad weather clause and demanded negotiations on job cuts and working conditions. The site with more than 15,000 employees must present a viable savings plan within a year; otherwise, closure may loom. Citing assessments from economic experts, Boeminghaus wrote that around 50,000 jobs in the region could be affected by a closure. About 1,000 suppliers depend on production, and up to a quarter of the regional industrial value creation could be lost. He added that it now concerns a total of seven to eight plants, including those of VW, Audi, and Mercedes. He named WELT and dpa as sources. https://t.co/0fbpxaHufh #Automobilindustrie #Neckarsulm #Stellenabbau (translated)
