"Due to the intensive development of the company, we decided to invest in the purchase of real estate in Dzierżoniów. The help and commitment of the City Hall and employees, especially the City Development Department, turned out to be irreplaceable. The Investor Service Point established at the City Hall, where entrepreneurs receive support, is a solution that it significantly facilitates getting to know the offer offered by the commune.
