A spokesperson told just-food today the expansion was a response to an increase in demand with an aim to “improve competitiveness”.

The firm was commended by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, who said it demonstrated “entrepreneurial spirit that can make Hungary stronger”.

In recent days, Orbán has unveiled government plans to invest HUF300bn (US$1.3bn) to support the development of the country’s food sector over the next few years.
