Prime Minister Beata Szydło announced on Thursday that negotiations have been completed on the location of a modern plant, which Daimler AG, the producer of Mercedes vehicles, is planning to build. “This is a fulfillment of our commitment to implement our economic program,” she said during a ceremony at the Chancellery of the Prime Minister (KPRM).
“I'm delighted that a company of this calibre, a brand known worldwide, has decided to invest in Poland,” Szydło said at a news conference. She pointed out that an extremely important role in the Plan for Responsible Development is played by “industrial reconstruction, reindustrialization, but also major new industrial investments, the creation of new jobs in Poland based on the building of modern plants producing the most advanced equipment. In this case, we will be a country where modern engines are produced. This brings me great satisfaction,” the Prime Minister stated.
In May Daimler announced that it intended to invest €500 mln in the construction of a new engine plant in Jawor near Wrocław and create several hundred new jobs.
