The German group ebm-papst, one of the largest manufacturers of electric motors and fans for the automotive industry worldwide, has bought over 6,300 sqm in the Western Industrial Park in Oradea.

The 6,300 sqm space will include a 5,000 sqm production hall and warehouse space and some 1,300 sqm for offices, reports Profit.ro. The German group has already ordered the production hall.

ebm-papst currently owns only one office in Romania, opened in Brasov in 2004.

Western Industrial Park is located in the western industrial zone of Oradea, about 9 kilometers from the Hungarian border, on a 50,000 sqm platform.

Two years ago, the group invested in a similar construction in Hungary, which included a new production plant and a warehouse. The investment totaled EUR 4.5 million and generated 300 jobs.
