ROME (MF-Dow Jones)--Fiat SpA (F.MI) Chief Executive Sergio
Marchionne Thursday said the company plans to keep production of
cars at its Sicily Termini Imerese plant only until 2011, a person
familiar with the matter said.
After 2011, the Termini Imerese plant will remain open "but with
a different sort of production," Marchionne told a meeting with the
government and labour unions without elaborating, the person
said.
Workers at Termini Imerese, which employs about 1,700 people,
went on strike last month fearing the closure of their plant.
