REGION–KRNOV
Connection of Krnov
and Červený Dvůr
The flourishing of Krnov began thanks to the development
of industrial production during the Industrial Revolution.
Today the city still draws from this bond.
Krnov offers excellent conditions for life. New
inhabitants are mostly attracted by quality public
infrastructure offering schools, hospital, cinema,
theatre, sporting facilities, premium social services and
a wide range of leisure activities for children.
Nowadays, the town‘s economy is widely diversified,
with a number of small and medium-sized businesses,
mainly engineering and food, many of which expanding
worldwide. In the near future, the construction of
the Northeast bypass of the city will be completed,
followed by other structures, thus linking Krnov to
the backbone roads of international importance. The
town‘s strength also lies in a long tradition and a strong
position within the technical secondary education field,
which, in combination with the proximity of universities,
guarantees suffciently skilled workforce.
Červený Dvůr industrial zone with a total area of
48 hectares is located on the Czech-Polish border
2 km southeast of the city centre. In the first stage, several
important companies were interested in the zone – e.g.
the Italian company IVG Colbachini CZ (production of
hoses and closures), the company S.T.I. CZ (production
of machine parts) or RAME CZ (production of parts
for gas boilers). There are many investors attracted to
this area and so the town, with the financial help of the
state, implemented the second stage of the industrial
zone providing altogether 7,5 hectares of free area
intended mainly for sale. The land is fully owned by the
town of Krnov. To be able to invest in this area, one has
to be specialising in the field of manufacturing industry,
strategic services or construction of a technology centre.
The biggest advantages are in particular the excellent
location and suffciently skilled workforce force.
