Production will migrate from the Garessio to four of the remaining five sites in Italy. The synchronizers business will be relocated to India as part of the “Worldwide Center of Excellence” for those products. Production at Garessio is forecast to halt at the end of the year. All 84 Garessio employees will be entitled to relocate to other Graziano locations. At Porretta Terme,
