Wanhua plays the role of domestic enterprise engaged in implementation and BC is the overseas company undertaking the construction of the Economic Zone.
Located in Kazincbarcika, Borsod-Abauj-Zenpen, northeastern Hungary, the Cooperation Zone covers an area of 4.58 square kilometers. It is 206 kilometers away from Budapest and is well-connected with Hungary’s railway network. After nearly 70 years of development, the Cooperation Zone has a well-developed infrastructure providing support for its chemical industry, as well as a wealth of experience in the operation and management of a large-scale manufacturing park. Located in the European Union, the Zone enjoys a number of preferential policies of the European Union and Hungary, and is close to emerging markets in Central and Eastern Europe. The zone’s unique geographic position makes it a cooperative development platform for Chinese enterprises to enter the European market and avoid the trade barriers of the EU.
