In January, another prestigious award, now 51 jobs on the slope, with zitmeubelfabrikant The Seat
Ardooie Zitmeubelfabrikant The Seat has a special works council with the intention to in liquidation to be communicated. Cause would be the continued loss data and declining revenues. Remarkable, for the company, which is already 96 years old, was at the beginning of this year, the prestigious Henry van de Velde Award.

The head Office was founded in 1923 as a local joinery who are chairs for kitchens and churches made, but it now has an own collection in collaboration with some of the leading designers. There are weekly, some three thousand chairs. The company is run by Geert Behaeghel and his son David. This is the chair manufacturer full to the fourth generation. If The Office is effectively in liquidation and would close the doors and there are 51 employees on the street. It comes to 44 workers and 7 office staff.

Tough market

“We have the news this morning on a special works council heard,” said Eddy Geldof of trade union ACV. “They made their intention known to the to stop production and to proceed to collective dismissal in the context of a liquidation. It went on for quite a few years financially less well with the company. They are a player in a difficult market and had been for a while a fall in turnover. There was also a lot of temporary unemployment. It was, for most employees, a clap of thunder in a clear sky. By the Henry van de Velde Award, which the company at the beginning of this year was the hope for more job security increased.”
