Second Fuji facility in Romania

German Fuji Magnetics GmbH, the European representative of the Japanese company, is to open a second production facility in Cluj-Napoca in an investment worth 5 million euros. The company has already bought 3,000 sqm of manufacturing space in the Tetarom high-tech park that it plans to use to produce components for video, audio and photographic equipment, and recording media in particular. “The contractual terms with Fuji have been worked out and the contract will be signed this week. From the talks we’ve had so far we understand that the investment in equipping the production space will amount to 5 million euros,” Viorel Gavrea, Tetarom manager, told ZF Transilvania. The facility will make Betacam videocassettes initially. “The production facility at the Tetarom park has been completed, and the space will be made available to the interested companies in early April. The contract sets the start of manufacturing for September,” Gavrea said. ZF
