Nord (Czech Republic) - A quarter of a century ago, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS founded its subsidiary in the Czech Republic. Now, the company is one of the biggest suppliers of drive technology in the Eastern European country.

Every year, 12,500 drive systems leave the main factory in the capital city of Prague, which together with the Hradec Králové, Brno and Ostrava sites forms the Czech branch. Since 2008 NORD Czech Republic continues to grow; in 2018, sales increased by 4% in comparison with the previous year.

This extremely positive development is an essential result of the enormous commitment of the 36 employees in production, sales and service. “We have achieved a significant position on the Czech market”, says a delighted branch manager Hynek Zubr. “Our customers much appreciate the high quality and the technical characteristics of our products.”

In 2008, to cater for increasing demand, NORD established a state-of-the-art production facility in Prague which produces drive systems for the Czech market. The administration is located there as well. In May, NORD Czech Republic celebrated the 25th anniversary with a gala dinner including cultural programme in Prague.
