Inside information: Anora plans to adjust its organisational structure to
improve profitability and efficiency and initiates cooperation negotiations
Anora plans to adjust its organisational structure to improve profitability and
efficiency and will launch cooperation negotiations in its home markets. The
negotiations concern roles in all segments, Wine, Spirits and Industrial.
Altogether, approximately 500 employees are within the scope of the
negotiations. Anora estimates that this would result in the closure of 70-80
positions in 2025. As a result, Anora targets a reduction in personnel expenses
of approximately EUR 7 million, which would be visible during 2026.
The cooperation negotiations will begin in October and the adjusted organisation
is planned to be operational early 2026. The planned measures and changes may be
subject to local consultation requirements in multiple Anora countries with
employee and union representatives.
The company will continue to seek further measures to improve its profitability,
efficiency and cost-competitiveness. Anora's work on an updated strategy will be
divided into the following phases: Fit & Fix and Focus. The Fit & Fix phases
deliver short and mid-term performance improvement over 2025-2026, while the
Focus drives growth initiatives as of 2026 onwards. Anora will present its
updated mid-term strategy at the upcoming Capital Markets Day in Helsinki on 5
November 2025.
