A Plant for EUR 32 million with 30,000 sq.m. area and 2000 employees - this investment record for Pleven had its actual start this week: the German giant Leoni made the symbolic first sod of its Bulgarian plant for assembling electrical wiring installations for cars. The plant will be built by September 2019 and will be located in the industrial zone in Pleven on 1 Grivishko Shose Street. It will have a built-up area of nearly 30,000 sq.m., in which production, logistics, administration, dining and service rooms with all the amenities for the staff will be located. But real production will begin as early as the end of the year.
The biggest investment in the city in recent years will be with a co-investor - the real land and the building, which is half of the investment, will be invested by the Pleven construction company "Horizont Ivanov". It will rent the asset to the German company.
