At the moment, there is a lot happening both on site and in our HR offices, as we plan to welcome over 500 good people to our team.

The site will also house a distribution facility for storage and distribution of tires. The combined built-up area totals some 100,000 m². The total investment of the greenfield factory is estimated to be approximately EUR 650 million, which is among the most valuable investments in Romania in the recent years.
