The German company Gruner has opened its fourth production plant in Serbia, in Vlasotince where relays for renowned automotive brands will be produced and which will employ 220 workers. Gruner, one of the largest manufacturers of energy relays for current metres and the automotive industry, already had a 7,000 sqm production plant in Vlasotince, which has now been expanded by another 4,500 sqm.
Gruner’s director Martin Spreitzer said that the company has invested EUR 23.7 million in Serbia so far and that the company currently employs 745 people. He also said that the new investment was supported by the Serbian government with EUR 2.2 million in direct subsidies, most of which were used for the construction of the production plant and the purchase of equipment and machinery.
