An innovative bath furnace of the latest generation was lit at an official ceremony in Pleven to mark a large-scale investment of the Rubin Glass Factory.
Rubin Glass Factory is a member of Bulgarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
"Northern Bulgaria shows a capacity for business development and modernization and is receiving support from the state. The opening of new high-tech facilities in Pleven is of particular importance for the entire region," Innovation and Growth Deputy Minister Krasimir Yakimov said during the ceremony. The project, which will open 150 new jobs, was certified by the Мinistry as a priority under the Investment Promotion Act.
Yakimov congratulated the investors for the fact that, along with the expansion of production, they aim to reduce harmful emissions by complying with the highest environmental standards. “All investments that the company has made so far establish it as a key factor in the economic development of the region,” the Deputy Minister emphasized.
