EMPWR USA McMinnville

Gdje radimo

Tvornica

U McMinnvilleu nam je rast poslovanja udahnuo novu snagu za proširenje poslovanja i modernizaciju naše opreme. Budućnost izgleda svijetlo, a ta „vibra“ čini ovo mjesto uzbudljivim za cijeli naš tim ovdje u SAD-u.

Centar za istraživanje i razvoj (IR)

Naš rastući IR centar mjesto je u kojem tim može izraditi i procijeniti prototipove za naše kupce i rastuću industriju nutritivnih pločica. Ovaj centar smješten je na samoj lokaciji tvornice, što nam omogućuje trenutačnu procjenu rezultata ispitivanja i brzo pomicanje naših inovacija korak dalje. Svi se zaposlenici potiču da kušaju nove prototipove i iznesu svoja mišljenja.

Nalazimo se na južnom kraju McMinnvillea, povijesnog grada u srcu vinske regije Oregona. Nema mnogo gradova ovdje koji su te sreće da su samo 45 minuta udaljeni od velikog grada, planina i oceana. Lagano putovanje na posao iz svih smjerova, bez prometnih gužvi.
