Description
Wanemi CZ plans to invest over CZK 2 billion into the construction of a new power station and a new paper mill in Záhřeb (Šumperk region). The two facilities are to be finished at the beginning of 2009 and will offer 200 new jobs at the first stage. Within next three years, the company intends to employ another 300 people. This project is seen as a favourable feature in the region that suffers from one of the highest unemployment rate exceeding 12 percent.
