So how would closing down in Germany affect car imports from there? You can still buy them from there and haul them over here in the future, just like Sakta, Rinta-Jouppi, and many, many others do, without racking up millions in losses in Germany every year.
Of course, the Swedish krona is so affordable again that imports seem to be flowing from there to Finland instead.
And only time will tell the ultimate truth about the closure costs. Right now, long-term lease agreements are being booked as expenses for the remainder of their term, but of course, the fate of the premises in question might change when other takers emerge for them.
However, this closure decision was so pleasing and sweet that I had pea soup and put 2 cm of strawberry jam on top of my dessert pancakes!
