China-based Himile Group completed construction of a vulcanized tire mould plant in Székesfehérvár yesterday through an investment of HUF 1.4 billion, the Hungarian Investment Promotion Agency (HIPA) announced in a press release. The plant will serve China and Europe.
Planning for expansions valued at billions of forints in the coming years, Himile said that this first phase of the investment could be followed by further developments in Hungary.
