However, this will not happen before Romania joins the Schengen area, which the entrepreneur expects to happen in 2024.
“Expansion abroad is among the future plans of Atlex. An important aspect about taking this step is the macroeconomic one, as currently the expansion of Altex and other Romanian companies is hampered by our country’s not being part of the Schengen area. Joining the area would be the trigger for Altex expansion. We expect this to happen in 2024. However, Romania’s development must be based on a political consensus, over a coherent, long-term program,” he says.
