The director also informed him that he had contacted Csaba Hende, the Fidesz representative of the Szombathely constituency 1, who was immediately in favor of the initiative, as well as the Szombathely municipality, who also provided their support.

He indicated that they are looking for the best opportunity and accommodation together, and they also want to find a nursery, kindergarten, and school for the children if necessary.

Tibor Radics also said that after the coronavirus epidemic, production was reorganized, with more and more orders. Their group currently employs 240 people and achieved sales of HUF 1.6 billion last year.
