Businesses currently in Freeport of Ventspils
Member of the Board of Ventspils Welding Plant Jevgēnijs Lapkovskis:
– It is much easier to work in Ventspils than in Riga – less red tape and cooperation with the municipality make Ventspils attractive for us. One of the factors making the city unique is the ability to combine tourism and industry. The North Kurzeme Vocational Education Competence Centre offers training programs that are directly related to the company’s field of activity, e.g. Metalworking, Electronics, Mechanical Engineering Technology and others.
HBT HIDRAULIKA Procurator Alfred Grieze:
– Since our greatest customer Bucher Municipal Ltd. operates in Ventspils, we chose to launch our company’s operation right here. The future operations and business development in Ventspils was also supported by the fact that the municipality and the Freeport of Ventspils had been very flexible and had supported us in the development process.
