Revitalisation of the Site of the Former Sugar Factory in Kaba to Commence27 April 2010
The transformation and development of the industrial site and infrastructure of the former sugar factory in Kaba, which is a project costing over 850 million HUF, may commence with the help of financing from the New Hungary Development Plan, with the aim of making this area suitable for accommodating enterprises setting up sites in this area to function as an industrial park.
The majority of infrastructures and technological installations used in this sugar factory were sold after production was phased out. The remaining infrastructure and the central site, together with its linear and other infrastructural components, road and railway network, electricity network, internal rainwater and sewage drainage and treatment system and remaining industrial and office buildings, make it ideal for developing this site into an industrial zone. The aim of this project to be implemented from EU funding amounting to approximately 430 million HUF relates to making the best possible use of the infrastructure left after sugar production activities were abandoned at the factory, hence creating jobs promoting economic development in this region.
Within the framework of this project, the roof structure of the main production unit will be renewed; an IT system and telephone exchange will be set up and security surveillance cameras will be installed. The public utility sub-network will also be set up by transforming and complementing the existing public utility network in the sugar factory to make this network suitable for connecting and operating the individual public utility systems of enterprises moving in to this area.
Equipment will also be procured within the framework of this project, which, among others, includes the procurement of hardware and software, as well as computer equipment tying in with the modernisation of the office building. The server and network operating systems required, computers, as well as the network will also be set up as a part of this development.
