In the next few months “Standard Profile Bulgaria” is going to hire 100 new workers for the new production facility of the company. It is going to produce rubber seals for Daimler – Chrysler.
The plant in Stara Zagora was built in 2004 as part of the international “Standard Profile” group – manufacturing seals for the automotive industry. For the last 4 years the company has expanded its production capacity in Bulgaria four times. Only in 2012, 450 new workers were hired and currently the total number of employees in the plant has reached 1150.
“Standard Profile Bulgaria” exports 100% of its production. The company delivers for more than 10 different companies like General Motors, Fiat, VW, Renault and Daimler – Chrysler. The Stara Zagora plant exports its production to four continents – Europe, North and South America and Asia. Recently the company won a project for the new Opel Astra. This success makes the owners – “Aktera Group” with headquarters in Istanbul, plan a new investment in a second, identical plant in Stara Zagora on an area of 4000 sq.m. and of the same capacity. The new plant will be finished in 2015 and will create new 1000 jobs, thus making the total number of employees in the plant exceed 2000.
