Four agreements on new Japanese investments in Hungary have been signed, Hungaryʼs Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Péter Szijjártó told Hungarian news agency MTI in a telephone interview after conducting talks in Tokyo on Monday.
The four companies will bring total investments of HUF 26 bln to Hungary, creating 400 jobs. Two of the investors are active in the automotive sector, one in the food industry and one in the hotel industry, the minister said.
