25TH ANNIVERSARY OF BIOCEL PASKOV A.S.

Biocel Paskov celebrated the 25th anniversary of its founding in the year 2008. Two and a half decades of key facts and figures as well as highlights and milestones were documented in a separate brochure, which was published in September 2008, precisely 25 years after the start of production. A particularly important step in the history of the facility was its successful privatization. Biocel Paskov changed owners, and was integrated into the Heinzel Group. Since that time, the factory has not only significantly increased production capacity, but has emerged as a competitive business partner on its domestic market and abroad. Almost the entire production is now destined for export markets. The anniversary celebration held in June was a major social event, attracting all company employees who travelled to the Silesian Ostrava Castle in Ostrava. The festive evening was formally opened by Biocel Paskov’s Managing Director Ivo Klimša and Heinzel Group President Alfred H. Heinzel. Following the program announcement by moderator Jiří Wrobel, the buffet was opened, featuring all kinds of traditional and regional specialties at different stands. The singer Tereza Kerndlová and her dancing ensemble as well as the rock group “No Name“ provided top notch musical entertainment. The stately castle offered a particularly appealing backdrop for the successful jubilee celebration, which guests will remember for a long time to come.
