202490th Anniversary of the Founding of Chemosvit - Sheetlets

In early 1934 Jan Antonín Baťa began work on a new factory near the modern-day city of Svit. Today, the factory is Chemosvit, a company that plays a major role in the economic and social life of the region. The 1930s saw rapid development in production with the manufacture of artificial fibre, staple fibre, cellophane, and other related products on a green field at the foot of the Tatras. During its time the factory has faced difficult periods and its founders have needed to make great efforts to ensure its survival. The same shareholders, who made a significant contribution to its development, have owned the Chemosvit Group since 1993. Today, the Chemosvit trademark is well-known, not only regionally but also worldwide.
