The Croatian aircraft components manufacturer Enikon Aerospace will create around 200 new jobs over the following three years period, of which around 100 new jobs in 2020. The company signed an agreement with the City of Vukovar in Eastern Slavonia, for the lease of business space where the company is planning to open its new production plant. Investment value is estimated at HRK 1million (€134,606.57) in 2020.
Enikon Aerospace hopes to establish close business collaboration with local manufacturers and firms for the production of various parts and components needed for the equipment of the aircrafts. The Enikon Aerospace new plant will be opened in the second quarter of 2020. The investment will be phased in, and future employees, from low skilled workers to highly qualified and skilled engineers, will be required to undergo company trainings. As there is no school education for such specific work, Enikon Aerospace will train the workers and everyone will undergo internal training at the company’s facilities in Croatia and abroad.
