Budapest, June 21 (MTI) – Economy Minister Mihály Varga inaugurated French auto parts supplier Sicta’s 4 million euro office building and storage base in Felsőzsolca, in north-eastern Hungary, on Tuesday.
Varga said French businesses had contributed greatly to Hungary’s economic progress over the last few years.
France is among Hungary’s top five trading partners, he said, noting that bilateral trade turnover grew by more than 10 percent last year to 8.3 billion euros.
The company plans to invest a further 12 million euros in Felsozsolca over the coming years, Varga said.
