Mercedes plant expansion in Hungary progressing on schedule
The expansion of the Mercedes facilities in Kecskemét, in central Hungary, is progressing according to schedule, the minister of foreign affairs and trade said on Monday.
The 400 billion forint (EUR 1bn) investment will double the plant’s capacity, “adding to Hungary’s weight in shaping modern car manufacturing,” Péter Szijjártó said on Facebook.
Production at a chassis manufacturing and assembly plant is expected to start at the end of 2025, creating new jobs in the process, Szijjártó said.
He also said Joerg Burzer, the board member in charge of the Production, Quality, and Supply Chain Management Division, had praised the Hungarian workforce and the operational environment.
