Description
Umdasch Group, the Austria-based construction company specialised in formwork technology and outfitting of shops, is planning to continue its business expansion. As it was announced on 10 May 2007, the company, headquartered in Amstetten, Niederösterreich, is expecting to create 100 new jobs at the plant located in Amstetten before the end of 2007. This follows the creation of 250 new jobs in 2006. The expansion is due to the opening up of new markets, such as the increasing numbers of petrol station shops and shopping areas set up at airports. Umdasch is planning to invest 150 million Euro in 2007, half at its subsidiaries abroad.
