In Moldova, automotive component suppliers can

increase their cost-effectiveness.

Production in or sourcing from Moldova is profitable and

future-proof. Many new successful small, medium and large

investments in manufacturing, IT and internet-based services

demonstrate this impressively.

Most new jobs have been generated by Automotive Suppliers.

They form a vibrant and growing sector in Moldova's economy.

They profit from low-cost opportunities, and many decided to

extend their operations in Moldova.
