Transcom to close its Valdivia contact center in Chile. One-time cost in Q4 2013: EUR 0.7m


Luxembourg, 29 November 2013 – Transcom announced today that it will close its
contact center in Valdivia, Chile, effective immediately. Approximately 190
employees will be affected. The cost of closing the site amounts to €0.7
million, impacting Q4 2013 results.

The context of this decision is the rationalization and repositioning of
Transcom’s operations in Latin America due to client requirements. Following the
closure of the Valdivia site, Transcom will have three contact centers in Latin
America: Concepción (Chile), Lima (Peru), and a newly opened site in Cali
(Colombia).

The recently established site in Cali, Colombia, will strengthen Transcom’s
position in Latin America. Colombia continues to evolve quickly as an attractive
location for the delivery of customer care outsourcing services, providing a
competitive cost structure, a growing labor pool, government support and an
expanding economy. The potential to deliver services from Colombia to customers
in several different time zones – in Spain, North America and Latin America –
also makes the location advantageous from a capacity utilization perspective.
