„In 2001, Leipzig prevailed against 250 applicants in the decision for a new plant. Decisive factors included location, infrastructure and popularity in the region. Thanks to its highly qualified and committed employees, our plant is now the largest industrial operation in Leipzig.“
Petra PeterhänselHead of BMW Group Plant Leipzig
