Five interesting facts about Hungarian porcelain manufactory Herendi – PHOTOS
Change language:
The 200-year-old iconic Hungarian porcelain manufactory called Herendi is an essential part of the country’s culture. It is considered to be a luxury brand, and ever since Queen Victoria, the richest parts of the world have an aching desire to own a piece.
Forbes reported five interesting facts about Herendi you might not have known until now.
It is well-known abroad and not just in Hungary
Herendi is the biggest porcelain manufactory among luxurious factories in the world today. With 700-750 employees, the manufactory exports porcelain all over the globe including the USA, UK, Japan, Europe, and Arabic regions.
It had its lowest point in the past
The brand faced hard times fifteen years ago when the number of sales severely decreased. By the end of 2005, the manufactory lost almost 1 billion HUF (3 million EUR) and got into a debt of 2 million HUF (6 million EUR).
Good article, only with a tiny misspelling. I guess, you’ve meant to write 2 billion of HUF debt, instead of the 2 million. Luckily things are rosier these days! ?
