Description

Management of MAN Nutzfahrzeuge decided that an additional trucks assembling plant will be constructed in Kraków. The final shortlist included Polish Kraków and Slovak Koszice. After all works are completed production capacity will stand at 15,000 vehicles annually. Planned investment outlays will stand at between €90-100 million. Currently MAN Nutzfahrzeuge produces trucks and components for buses in Starachowice, as well as buses in Poznań. In the past, the company had outstandingly positive experience related to these plants.
