Hungary's Dunaferr To Renew Foundry, Save Jobs
Dunaferr’s owners do not wish to sell the company but will not lay off any more workers, as they will instead modernise a foundry at the Dunaújváros steelworks. Vneshekonombank executives repeated while in Hungary last week that they do not want to sell the steelworks, because the company is a good one and they want to develop it into an important regional company.

The modernisation of the foundry will be completed by August 20, the Russian bank said.

As a result, the foundry’s life will be extended and there will be fewer layoffs than announced earlier, Népszabadság adds.
