The car manufacturer, Jaguar Land Rover, announced its aim to build a Slovak production plant in August 2015. At the end of the same year the Slovak government contract was signed with the car-maker's representatives.
The factory will stand near Nitra, where the state has begun to build an industrial area. The official construction works started in September 2016.
