Intersnack Hungary will develop its factory in Győr over the next one year with an investment of HUF eight billion. From 2024, the manufacturer of Chio products will produce its new salty snack in Hungary for almost all of Europe, the so-called a potato-based snack called oven chips.

As a result, the capacity of the Győr factory will increase by nearly 25 percent. In the last three years, the company spent nearly HUF 4.5 billion on the modernization of the factory. The latest equipment, the automatic packaging system, was inaugurated by Márton Nobilis, the State Secretary responsible for the food industry and trade policy of the Ministry of Agriculture.

The Győr plant is one of the most important factories of the company group, said Dénes Lukács, managing director of Intersnack Hungary, at the handover. – The factory has already been the company’s flour snack production center in Central Europe. And now our new chips will be made here for almost the entire group. This further increases the share of exports in production, last year we produced nearly 12,000 tons for export, the value of which was HUF 10.3 billion.

The newly commissioned packaging system cost HUF 1.5 billion. The purchase of the machines is part of the consistent development of the last 10 years.
