More than 220 jobs are to be lost at three Mondelez Ireland sites.
The company, which owns Cadbury and chewing gum brand Trident, is to close a production plant in Tallaght in Dublin, with the loss of 45 jobs.
A further 160 jobs are to go at chocolate manufacturing plants in Coolock, Dublin, and in Rathmore, Co Kerry.
Mondelez said the jobs losses are part of a restructuring of the company's products, with some brands being discontinued.
