ADEUS PORTUGAL

Clever Leaves leaving Portugal as they let go of 21% of staff

MJ Biz Daily reports that Clever Leaves Holdings plans to cut almost one-quarter of its total workforce and wind-down operations in Portugal as part of a major restructuring effort.

The move is expected to result in USD$7 million in annualised savings.

MJ Biz Daily highlights that Clever Leaves estimates the plan will cost up to $21 million, including:

  • Up to $7 million in written-off inventories.
  • $12 million-$13 million in real estate and equipment exit costs.
  • Almost $1 million related to severance and employee benefits.

According to the company’s statement in a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filing: “These savings will partially mitigate the impact of higher labour costs and headwinds from the macroeconomic environment, as well as fund additional investments to continue to drive a more efficient cost structure long term.”
