German manufacturer MTU Aero Engines has opened an engine repair facility in Nova Pazova, northern Serbia. The facility has a footprint of 39,000 sqm and is expected to have a workforce of about 400 employees.
According to Serbian media reports, MTU Aero Engines has invested about EUR 100 million in the project. The company had the final handover of the new building in June and plans to start operations at the new site in December 2022.
“The additional maintenance repair and overhaul capacity in Serbia will further improve our strong and flexible network, and boost our ability to offer competitive services in the global market. Just as at all our other sites, customers can count on our consistently high quality and reliability. We also greatly appreciate the excellent support and partnership of the Serbian government,” said MTU Aero Engines’ Chief Program Officer, Michael Schreyoegg.
