“Alytus has a good industrial area, so a valuable neighbourhood and suitable employees can be found here. I myself am from Alytus, so I am happy that the municipality of Alytus and Alytus industrial park, where we are located, have met our expectations in the senses of infrastructure and constructive cooperation”, – says Tomas Veli\u010dka.
