Cognac Distillery Workers Plan Strike Amid Relocation Fears #

Workers at France’s cognac distilleries are planning to strike next week due to concerns about potential relocation of bottling operations to China. This move aims to circumvent import tariffs. The strike is scheduled for November 28 at major distilleries, following an earlier walkout at a prominent cognac house. The business recently disclosed its intention to test the feasibility of sending bulk quantities of cognac to China. This development has fueled apprehensions among workers regarding the future of their industry and job security.
