The Italian consortium Elco SpA is going to invest EUR 5 M into the construction of a new factory for the production of small electric motors in Bulgaria's northwest town of Krivodol. A managerial team of the company is expected to arrive in the town later on Tuesday to discuss with the Mayor Nikolay Ivanov the second phase of the project after the draft design of the new plant has been completed and a construction permit has been issued. The new plant is expected to employ about 150 persons. It will be built on a plot of 36 decares. The Bulgarian subsidiary of Elco SpA, Elco BG Property is considering relocating its headquaters from Sofia to Krivodol, where it would receive tax breaks because of the higher unemployment in the region, and would be spared the 10% corporate tax. Krivodol is located 130 km north of Sofia. It has a population of about 3 500 people. The Italian consortium Elco SpA has operations in Italy, Spain, the UK, Hong Kong, and Brazil.
