Description
Auria Solutions Slovakia has announced plans to create 100 positions at its new production plant in Vrable by the end of 2019. The multinational company invested about €8.8 million in the plant, which will produce different sound baffle components and interior decorations for cars.
According to a spokesperson for Auria Solutions, this is the first investment of the company in the region. The production capacity covers the needs of about 150,000 personal cars annually, and will be extended in the second stage of the investment. After finishing the investment, in total 150 jobs will be created there in the next two years. The company is also interested in cooperation with other car manufacturers in the region.
