The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company intends to close another production facility, this time far away from its European operation. The company will end tyre making at its plant in Shah Alam by 30 June 2024, with the closure process completed by the end of this year. Approximately 550 employees will be directly affected by the plant’s shutdown.
