In Romania, the latest investment round will be funnelled into Valenii de Munte, Giurgiu and Vatra Dornei, while the town of Velingrad in Bulgaria will be another recipient.
Rafal Gruszeczka, the chief financial officer of Maspex, said the capital will fund investments through 2021 and help improve the company’s competitiveness

The cash made available to the firm is backed by the European Fund for Strategic Investments.
