German Company Groschopp Coming to Topola – Electric Motors and Robots for Industry to Be Produced

A member of the municipal council of Topola, Dragan Jovanovic, has announced the arrival of the German company Groschopp, which will produce electric motors and robots for the industry in Zabare near Topola.

Jovanovic wrote on his Facebook profile that it was agreed for the German company to open a subsidiary and called this important “for the income tax revenues for the municipality too”.

– The investment itself will be worth several million euros and employ a large number of male and female workers with secondary education and higher education – Jovanovic said.

He added that the preparation of the project was in progress at the company and that the exact numbers would be known once that is finished, which is expected by the end of January.

Jovanovic said that the German partner would rent existing space in the village of Zabare, which is currently in a bad condition and out of use.

– The municipality will oblige to sell the entire facility to the German partner at the market price in 2022 – Jovanovic explained.

According to him, one section of the facility currently houses a school and a preschool institution group, and the German partner will oblige to build a new school within a year on the land provided by the municipality by agreement with the local community.

– It is only when the existing section of the Karadjordje school in Zabare is moved to the new space that the new owners will take over that part of the facility – Jovanovic wrote.

He added that the new school would be modern and of a wider capacity, because, as he pointed out, in the future, it should also be attended by the children of the workers who come to Topola to work at the new factory.

– Realistically, at the moment, Topola doesn’t have enough qualified workforce for such a factory – Jovanovic estimated.

He said that he was proud that the whole job “is being done by [the municipality], without the state’s or anyone else’s help”.

Jovanovic said that, after the Christmas holidays, he would have meetings with residents of Zabare to introduce them to the plans and to determine the parcel for the new school, which will also feature a part of the preschool institutions and a space for the local community office.
