Description

Austrian wholesale bakery Resch & Frisch is creating 100 additional jobs by May 2013. This is due to an investment of EUR 30 million in its production site in Wels.

The bakery based in Upper Austria, which currently employs 600 workers in Wels and 1,040 workers overall, is to double its production capacity. The additional jobs will be created successively and hiring should be concluded by May 2013, when the new central warehouse will be completed.
