Despite the COVID-19 virus, our employees in Romania, Slovakia, Hungary, Macedonia, Poland, Ukraine, Bosnia & Herzegovina and Serbia continue their production, sale and distribution activities. During the first three months of the year, our attention was to meet our budget figures, thus contributing to the economic development of the country, because Romania must move forward,” said Cosmin Pătroiu, TeraSteel general manager.
