Friedrichshafen - The future of the German automotive supply industry is being put to the test.
Hundreds of employees at ZF Friedrichshafen, Germany's second largest automotive supplier, recently protested against planned plant closures and job cuts.

However, company management remains vague.
However, ZF boss Holger Klein emphasized that certain locations for which the group no longer sees a future are being put to the test.
