Lecco. Production peak
At Guzzi 60 hires
In the coming days, workers with temporary contracts will enter the Mandello factory - The new models are popular with the market: 12 thousand vehicles in the budget foreseen, compared to 10 thousand in the previous year
In a difficult moment like the present one, in which work goes on with the handbrake, Moto Guzzi hires about sixty employees with temporary contracts. The increase in staff will serve to cope with the production peak that the company expects for the next few months.
It is positive news, especially in a period of uncertainty. in which it is difficult for companies to expose themselves by hiring 60 workers for the assembly lines.
It is appropriate to say that the new models of the eagle house, recently renewed and improved, also to celebrate the centenary which will arrive on March 15th, are good, indeed very good for the production and turnover of the Piaggio group.
The new workers will enter the company for the first time in these days and will be divided into the two processing departments; that of the engine assembly and that of the assemblies where the twin cylinders of Mandello are finished in all respects, ready to leave the assembly lines and destined for the network dealers. Perhaps we are at the beginning of a magical moment for Moto Guzzi, also because the centenary will produce a sounding board, or media push for the brand which obviously will not be found unprepared for market demands.
If the year just ended for Moto Guzzi, or better still for the Piaggio group, was a positive year, the look to the future, that is to 2021, is to be considered optimistic and it is not excluded that the sales projections for the models made in Mandello are facing upwards.
There is talk of a production of about 12,000 vehicles with the logo of the eagle house. Already last year Moto Guzzi, at the beginning of the year, had hired 30 new workers for the factory, and at Easter the second wave had arrived with the temporary hiring of 18 workers who were really important for Moto Guzzi and who have the peak of production will rise to around 10 thousand vehicles. Currently in via Parodi, there are 92 permanent employees, of which 23 are employed, 24 between generic and indirect, the rest not equally divided between motor assembly and lines.
With the arrival of these new temporary employees, the production numbers are destined to fly in a moment of crisis that is gripping our country and a real confidence boost. Let's just imagine if the long-awaited V100 will arrive by 2021, the model that should sum up the hundred years of production and innovation of that glorious factory known and appreciated all over the world, as a true all-Italian brand because it is still in the factory in Mandello today. motorcycles are made strictly by hand as required by the protocol.
