Hungary is located on several transport corridors and is therefore an important transit country in Central Europe. Since 2004, the country has been a member of the European Union, which is why free movement of goods can take place without any problems. Due to the resident foreign investors, the good infrastructure and the favorable taxes, Hungary will remain as an important business location in the future and will gain in importance for the transport and logistics industry. Car manufacturers in particular (Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Opel and Suzuki) have set up production facilities in Hungary.
