The new plant, which started serial production at the end of March, supported an 11.6% increase in exports of the motor vehicles manufacturing sector in May from the same month a year earlier.
Headline industrial output edged down 0.4% in May from the same month a year earlier as the expansion in the automotive sector as well as the food industry failed to offset lower demand for vehicle fuel and a contraction in the communications equipment manufacturing sector as Finnish handset maker Nokia moved production from Hungary to Asia. Headline industrial output rose 1.9%, adjusted for the number of work days.
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.
We would like to offer that same opportunity to our readers. We would like to invite you to help us deliver the quality business journalism you require. Hit our Support the BBJ button and you can choose the how much and how often you send us your contributions.
