Diora Świdnica Resumes Production After Intervention by Unitra
Diora Świdnica, a Polish manufacturer of components for loudspeaker columns that had been in bankruptcy, has resumed production with the help of Unitra. The new investor, Unitra, has rehired 54 of the approximately 115 employees who were laid off when a trustee issued termination notices at the end of June. The company has restarted production of empty OM enclosures (metal casings used for assembling modules, power supplies, or batteries) for clients worldwide. Unitra's director, Daniel Kostrzewa, emphasized that the company could not let Diora fail and that workers are the firm's greatest asset. Diora had been struggling financially for years despite attempts at restructuring, and its assets are owned by the Industrial Development Agency (Agencja Rozwoju Przemysłu). Unitra, a revived brand managed by Michał Kiciński, has recently leased Diora's production facilities. According to company representatives, the situation is still challenging, as Unitra is operating at a loss while trying to stabilize Diora, but efforts are being made to restore the company.
