I thought I heard they are moving some Renault jobs there too , sister company. |
'An announcement by Nissan that Renault might take the European lead in the companies' global manufacturing alliance (which also includes Mitsubishi) by taking up an estimated 20% spare capacity at Sunderland were quashed for the foreseeable future by Renault last week, when it said it had no current plans to move in to the UK.' |  | |  |

'Nissan is part of a three-way alliance with Renault and Mitsubishi, which are restructuring global operations to enable them to work more closely and cut costs.
As part of its plans, Nissan said it would focus on several "key markets", including Japan, North America and China.
Its boss said that it will "sustain" its presence in Europe but will leave more room for alliance partners there, such as Renault.'
It looks like the three way alliance have carved up the world into marketing areas. Obviously Renault will have Europe for themselves and Nissans 'presence' will only be maintained if they can trade tariff free. The clearly have new key markets in mind. I wouldn't be too confident regarding the future of the Sunderland plant and definitely would hold off on the gloating. | | | |

Basically Nissan are telling Boris Johnson that if he dares leave the European Union without a trade deal then Sunderland is no longer viable, World Trade Organisation terms will not do.
