Employees don't see it that way either. They demonstrated last week in front of the Bar-le-Duc SNCF station.
Crédit Agricole de Lorraine wants to close its administrative site in Bar-le-Duc within three years. The news came in November for the 76 employees. Management wishes to distribute employees to the Nancy site, around a hundred kilometers away. The president of the Meuse Haute-Marne Chamber of Commerce and Industry does not see it that way, and invites businesses and economic players to withdraw their money if the bank does not back down.
Crédit Agricole’s arguments deemed “unjustified”
Richard Papazoglou believes, in a post published on his LinkedIn account, that the arguments put forward are unjustified given the results achieved by the bank (more than 70 million euros including 50% in Meuse), and that this acts, among other things, the scenario of a designated and fatalistic department of the Meuse. Four days ago, he announced that he had received commitments from several private players for a sum exceeding 25 million euros. Crédit Agricole de Lorraine must make its decision on December 20 during a vote by the board of directors.
