MAN gears up its Poznan service center

"Yesterday the Poznan City Council adopted a resolution about the establishment of an economic zone on the site of Man's investment. The company will employ several dozen people this year and ultimately will create 500 new jobs. We are very happy since the employees of the center will include university graduates," declared Janusz Krysiak, the head of the city promotion and investments office. MAN will lease a building located near Lawica airport. At first the center will provide services for MAN's companies in Poland and then probably its companies from the rest of Europe. MAN has a factory in Starachowice where it intends to invest zl.75.5 million more and employ 300 people. It also has a factory in Sady near Poznan and will build another plant in producing trucks in Niepolomice near Kraków for EUR 90-100 million. (Puls Biznesu, pp. 1, 5) E.B.
