The press plant, the second at the Hungarian base, took two years to build. It will turn out parts for compact vehicles made in Kecskemét as well as parts for the global production network of Mercedes-Benz.
Almost all of the aluminum waste generated at the plant will be recycled.
Mercedes-Benz is plowing over EUR 1 billion into the base in Kecskemet "to equip it for future tasks", while making the switch to renewable energy sources.
Mercedes-Benz Manufacturing Hungary had net sales revenue of EUR 3.1 bln last year, public records show.
Producing journalism that is worthy of the name is a costly business. For over 30 years, the publishers, editors and reporters of the Budapest Business Journal have striven to bring you business news that works, information that you can trust, that is factual, accurate and presented without fear or favor.Newspaper organizations across the globe have struggled to find a business model that allows them to continue to excel, without compromising their ability to perform. Most recently, some have experimented with the idea of involving their most important stakeholders, their readers.
