Hell Energy inaugurates EUR 207 million capacity expansion in Hungary
Hungarian soft drink maker Hell Energy inaugurated an 80 billion forint (EUR 206.7 million) capacity expansion at its base in Szikszó, in north-eastern Hungary, on Friday.
The expansion will create 240 jobs, Péter Szijjártó, the minister of foreign affairs and trade, said at the inauguration, according to a ministry statement.
The joint investment by Hell Energy and its canning unit, Quality Pack, will enable the production of around 4 billion cans of beverage and 6 billion filled finished products, Szijjártó said.
The investment will strengthen Hell Energy’s position as market leader not only in Hungary, but also in Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, Cyprus and Croatia and could further expand its export market currently consisting of over 60 countries, he said.
