news International Aston Martin: Eastern Europe still amongst possible locations for new plant A site in Eastern Europe is still among possible locations for a future Aston Martin Lagonda Ltd. plant, the company’s CEO Andy Palmer told Reuters. Palmer said the company had narrowed down a list of 19 possible locations to five or six sites, including Alabama in the USA, Eastern Europe and British sites such as Wales and a site near the central English county of Warwickshire and the cities of Birmingham and Coventry. Palmer explained he would like it if the firm built its new model in its home market but that potential financial support was also an important factor in the decision-making process. “If you’re going to build a plant then obviously you want to, generally speaking, put your plant into an assisted area so that you can reduce the risk and the burden,” he is quoted as saying by Reuters, referring to regions in which European Union governments can provide support, such as parts of Wales and Eastern Europe. The final decision over the location is expected by the end of the year.
