The company ended 2021 with more than 17,500 employees in Romania. The difference versus the number of employees recorded at end-2020 (more than 20,100 at end- 2020) stems from the finalization of the process of spinning off the Powertrain division from Continental Group and turning it into the company Vitesco Technologies, listed on the stock exchange in 2021.
For 2022, Continental Romania has planned investments comparable with those in 2021, which target both the expansion of head offices and new equipment for engineering centers and for tire, electronic parts and ContiTech factories in Romania.
Continental had a preliminary turnover of EUR33.8 billion in 2021 and currently has more than 190,000 employees across 58 countries and markets.
Between 1999 and 2021, Continental invested over EUR2 billion in activities in Romania. The company’s all three fields of activity are represented in Romania. Continental has six production units and four engineering centers in Timisoara, Sibiu, Carei, Nadab and Iasi. The company has a tire distribution center in Bucharest. At end- 2021, Continental had more than 17,500 employees.
