TRIGO Group further expands its global footprint with the launch of its new subsidiary in Poland

A strategic presence in the heart of Europe

Having developed a global footprint over the past two decades in twenty-five countries, TRIGO has now set out to conquer the Polish market with the opening of a new subsidiary in Poznan. This new entity at the center of Europe will serve as a hub for TRIGO’s operations in the region. As one of themost dynamic countries in the region, Poland is ideal to expand the group’s European operations.

 

This development is part of TRIGO’s long-term growth strategy, which aims to expand its presence in key manufacturing markets around the world.

With Continental Europe already playing a significant role in the automotive industry, the Polish market is particularly promising: thanks to its strategic position in Central Europe, its highly skilled workforce and its favorable business environment.  A number of OEMs like Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Stellantis, MAN and auto components suppliers, among  them leaders such as Valeo, ZF, APTIV and FORVIA, have a strong presence in Poland, taking advantage of high demand in the market, as well as convenient access to the lucrative German and Czech markets.
