“The first people are most likely expected back on Monday,” ACLVB said. The start-up of the trailer division at Van Hool will take place in phases. There are no concrete figures yet about the number of people who can work for Schmitz. Earlier this month, the company had indicated that it wanted to employ 350 people.
The restart with the Dutch VDL would also be heading in the right direction. They focus on the bus activities – and not on the trailer division.
