    North Wales the ideal location for Britains first ‘cloned’ sheep factory. 💡

    Good resale scrap value on the remaining plant within the factory will help fund the refit. Easy access to the A55/M56 and loads of greenfield potential for corralling the flocks prior to market. 🙂

    Only because the electrics are so crap they fail before anything else has a chance to :).

    Does anyone know the story behind this? Merloni shipping off production to Italy?

    Feel sorry for anyone that worked there though. Their old production line sold to the highest bidder on a upmarket Ebay 😥
    Hopefully if someone does take up the opportunity there’ll be jobs for them.

    Looking at these pictures makes me feel quite sad, Ive walked around that factory many times and each time there were less and less workers. It really is sad to see it being raffled off like this. That said I thought it would have been broken down and flattend long ago.

    This week I think I will do the lottery with the old Hotpoint numbers.
    that came from there… You never know. (well actually I probably do) but if they come up a few million could get it running again

    l agree with burns it is sad,in the blurb the factory was capable of producing a machine every 14 seconds thats quite something.. but then they still could not produce a washing machine for 70 euro. China is the new rock and roll!!!
