Continental to analyse Mexico, Canada sites as U.S. tariffs take effect

March 4 (Reuters) - German tire and car parts maker Continental CONG.DE said on Tuesday it will analyse its sites in Mexico and Canada and then make a decision on their future as U.S. tariffs on goods from those countries take effect.

Continental has factories in Mexico, Canada and the United States producing everything from tires to automotive components.

The company employs around 38,000 people in the region, its second-most important market after Europe, which accounted for 27% of total sales in 2023.
