De’Longhi doubled its business in Romania and also posted net profit of almost RON12.5 million.
De’Longhi’s EUR30 million investment in Jucu managed to partly offset the effect of Nokia’s departure from the industrial park, which left 3,000 people jobless. Tetarom III industrial park in Jucu currently accommodates a De’Longhi espresso machine plant developed in the former facilities of Nokia and a plastics plant, which makes the espresso machine parts. De’Longhi plants in Jucu are currently employing 1,000 people, and the company plans to hire even more.
“Most of the current openings are for operators, but we do have some jobs for higher education graduates. We will hold a recruitment event at the Dej City Hall on Friday, our third this year,” the representatives of De’Longhi Romania’s HR department told ZF Transilvania, without providing further details.
“De’Longhi is developing and directing attention to the existing workforce in Dej city and the surrounding areas and is set to hire several hundred people (…). It’s the third personnel selection session we’ve held at our City Hall,” said Costan Morar, Dej mayor. (EUR1=RON4.4882)
