Mayor Pencho Milkov and Deputy Mayors Zlatomira Stefanova and Dimitar Nedev were on a working visit to the temporary production base of the German company for the production of heaters for cars "Eberspecher". The activity was presented by the manager Ruslan Papazian and the director of new productions for the company Markus Alles.
"We are happy that you have chosen Ruse for your production expansion. For us, the valuation of the company is also an evaluation of the city and the direction it is going. A cluster of companies working for the automotive industry and expanding their activities is gradually forming here. Your presence is a very important moment in this development and I am convinced that, besides everything, we can draw from you a lot of experience in corporate culture and people management," said the Mayor.
"Eberspecher" specializes in the production of low-voltage and high-voltage heaters for electric, hybrid and hydrogen-powered vehicles. Two of the company's growing divisions related to the assembly of various air conditioning products will operate in Ruse.
"The flow process is automated, and the production itself is absolutely clean and done under overpressure conditions," Papazian points out.
The company operates in over 80 locations worldwide and manufactures heaters for some of the most iconic models of automotive giants such as Mercedes, Ford, Toyota and many more.
The Ruse team already includes 120 people and by the end of the year another 100 are expected to be recruited.
The current proceedings are an interim solution until the construction of the new building of the company, which will start in March and is expected to be completed by the end of 2023.The modern building will be located on 17 thousand m2 area with the possibility of almost double extension.
"Eberspecher" was founded in 1865 by Jakob Eberspecher and today around six million vehicles worldwide are already equipped with its high-voltage heaters and electronic control units. In 2021, the group's gross global annual revenue is €6 billion.
