Member of the Board of Froli Baltic Margret Fromme-Ruthmann.

–         Margret Fromme-Ruthmann on the city of Ventspils: “Your city is like a pearl by the sea – it impresses me how very clean and neat everything is here. Every time I come here, I feel like I’m visiting friends.”

And on the workers: “What is commendable is not only the level of education of the local workers, but also the fact that every one of them is ready to receive educational training, to learn, to acquire new skills and, most importantly – let themselves be taught. The training in collaboration with the German colleagues is taking place both here and in Germany. We are proud of our workers and pleased with how honestly and thoroughly they are doing their jobs. They don’t teach you in school how to work with a polyurethane device. This has to be learnt on the spot, production changes, therefore the workers need new skills and competences.”

Chairman of the Board of Kurzemes Granulas Viesturs Grīnbergs:

–         The forests surrounding Ventspils and the already existing wood processing companies were the main factors, which helped us to choose Ventspils as the place to settle down. Here we could create a full-cycle wood-processing cluster. What’s more, the nearby port provides bigger export opportunities for us.
