Description

In June 2004, Samsung starts production of laser printers, satellite receivers and other communication equipments in its unit in Galanta. 1,100 employees will get a job there before the end of 2004. The new investment is a consequence of a relocation from Samsung plants in the UK and Spain. Samsung also intends to build in Galanta its Central European logistic centre.
