Hungarian Investment Promotion Agency

Körber Hungária is the second-largest site of the international Körber Group worldwide. Since 1994, the Hungarian subsidiary has been engaged in custom machinery production, serving the food and tobacco manufacturing industries.

At its Pécs site, which employs more than 1,100 people, Körber has completed capacity expansion projects related to both its pharmaceutical packaging and inspection machinery, and its tobacco pre-processing machine production unit. As part of the two projects, the company expanded its machinery fleet to increase efficiency, and production areas were enlarged alongside supporting areas and office spaces.

In addition to the handover of production support projects, Körber announced a new investment at its Pécs site. The project involves the expansion of its regional SSC, as a key element in the company’s long-term growth and value creation strategy. Across the three investments, a total of 150 new jobs will be created, of which 100 will require high-level qualifications in IT, engineering, procurement, or finance.
