24年后,由于中国品牌的需求下降和竞争,Canon公司关闭了中山打印机厂。 Canon closed its Zhongshan printer plant after 24 years due to declining demand and competition from Chinese brands.

Canon关闭了广东中山的大型打印机厂,24年后于11月21日关闭,理由是需求下降,中国品牌竞争激烈。 Canon has closed its major printer plant in Zhongshan, Guangdong, ending operations on November 21 after 24 years, citing declining demand and fierce competition from Chinese brands. 该设施曾经雇用多达10 000名工人,生产激光打印机,并随着当地制造商获得市场份额而关闭。 The facility, once employing up to 10,000 workers, produced laser printers and shut down as local manufacturers gained market share. 前雇员领取了慷慨的离职偿金,有些雇员预计可领近43个月的工资。 Former employees received generous severance packages, with some expecting nearly 43 months’ pay. 当地电子公司正在从现场招聘熟练工人。 Local electronics firms are recruiting skilled workers from the site. 虽然Canon仍然在中国和国外经营打印机厂,但关闭反映了在2022年一家数码照相机厂关闭后,该公司在中国缩小规模的更大趋势。 While Canon still operates printer factories in China and abroad, the closure reflects a broader trend of the company scaling back in China, following a 2022 shutdown of a digital camera plant. 印刷部分的销售额在第三季度下降1%,Canon现在排在中国电子商务平台上的国内品牌的后面。 Sales in the printing segment dipped 1% in the third quarter, and Canon now ranks behind domestic brands on Chinese e-commerce platforms.
