“This year we are set to deliver trams for Bucharest. For this year we expect at least flat turnover from 2021, we expect a good year,” said Gheorghe Sirbu, general manager of Astra Vagoane Calatori.
The company entered the ranking of the most dynamic companies in industry by 2020 turnover.
“We now have 450-480 employees working in a single shift. We will probably hire another 100 people this year. We’re also making investments, we’re buying industrial robots for welding,” he added.
The Arad-based rolling stock maker is heading toward the RON400 million threshold in turnover, after having hit RON192 million revenues in 2020.
