Stellantis has signed an agreement to sell its idled Brampton assembly plant and associated equipment to Roshel, a defence contractor and Canadian armoured vehicle maker. The sale price for the facility and equipment has not been disclosed.
The Brampton plant halted operations in 2023, resulting in the layoff of more than 2,000 workers, according to CityNews. This follows a recent vote in which Stellantis workers approved a strike mandate after the automaker and the union reached an impasse regarding job security and the future of the Brampton facility.
