South Korea`s Samsung Engineering Co. said Monday it was consigned by Korea’s tire maker Nexen Tire Co. to build a plant in the Czech Republic at a cost of 200 billion won ($175 million).

Under the turnkey order, Samsung Engineering will build the plant 70 kilometers northwest of the capital city of Prague. The plant will be capable of producing 15,000 tires per day. Construction is scheduled to be completed in June 2018.

Samsung Engineering has accumulated experiences and expertise by participating 11 tire-related projects in Hungary and China since 1998. The company’s capacity to handle tire projects and project experiences in mid-Europe helped it win the order, sources said.

With the construction order, Samsung Engineering will be able to secure new customers and expect additional construction orders, while more likely to expand its foothold in mid-Europe.
