Volkswagen enters a SEZ and steps up investment

"We have included the factory in Poznań in the zone," declared the SEZ president Zbigniew Faliński, "It provides the opportunity for further development [of the company] in Poland. The company undertook to invest at least EUR 40 million. Volkswagen will be the largest investor in the zone and we hope that it will attract other investors." Volkswagen's spokesperson Marcin Baszyński informed that the investments would be connected with the production of the new Caddy Maxi model, new products manufactured in the company's foundry and the construction of a new production site for special vehicles. "The investments are in the large part planned already for next year," added Baszyński. (Puls Biznesu, pp. 1, 10) E.B.
