Audi to build logistics center in Gönyű, not Győr

German carmaker Audi will build a logistics center to service a capacity expansion at its base in the Hungarian city of Győr in nearby Gönyű, rather than at the plant itself, regional daily Kisalföld said on Saturday.
“The government will ensure all conditions necessary for the construction of the Audi logistics park at the port of Gönyü,” government commission for foreign investment Zsolt Becsey told the paper.
“We will establish such market conditions in Gönyű that make the port competitive,” he added.
The choice of Gönyű for the logistics center – a choice that is most economic for the government – became clear after the company’s management spoke with the prime minister at an event organized by the German Economy Club on Thursday, the paper said, citing “officials”.
