Müller Drogeria, a chain of drugstores, will open a hiring office this month and start the hiring process of 300 qualified logistical professionals who will be trained in the company's existing unit in Biatorbágy.

The construction of the Letenye site started in November 2011. From mid-2012 this unit will supply all retail units in Hungary, Croatia and Slovenia.
Müller is present in Hungary since 2007 and operates country-wide with 34 units.
