So they are closing US operations while opening a new factory in the Czech
Republic?  I guess labor's cheaper there.

But note this bit in the press release:
"They assemble LEGO elements for various LEGO construction sets and
construct LEGO models for
the LEGOLAND Parks."

What they are closing in Enfield is the *moulding* facility. Doesn't sound
like they are opening a new moulding facility in the Czech Republic, just
assembly. The two things are not directly substitutable.
