Epic Research Singapore : Panasonic News Update

Panasonic Corp. is considering selling the former site of its plasma television panel development plant in Osaka, as the electronics maker has decided to withdraw from the plasma TV business, Kyodo News reported, citing sources close to the matter.

The company may consider renting out part of the 120,000-square-meter site to Yamato Transport Co. The city of Ibaraki, where the facility is located, is also showing interest in acquiring the land, they said.

The production of plasma display panels began in 2001 at the plant, but it later became a base for assembling TVs and developing display panels after the company transferred plasma display panel production to its Amagasaki plant in Hyogo Prefecture in fiscal 2008. 
 Due to the sluggish plasma TV business, Panasonic incurred a massive group net loss for the second straight year in fiscal 2012 ended March 2013.
