Our history
Our history
2001 - The Start
Wemeco Nederland, as a commercial intermediary agency, started its activities on 01-01-2001 from Hengelo. The idea was to build a bridge between companies from Western and Central Europe. Wemeco was looking for the right production partner in Central Europe for companies that wanted to outsource work. She also monitored the production and logistics process after the order was placed.
2002 - Start own production
In order to get a better grip on the processes, it was decided at the end of 2001 to open our own production facility in Kudowa Zdrój, Poland. Wemeco Poland started up in a small production hall, where they started assembling mass items for a large company from Finland. This collaboration went so well that the location soon became too small. After an intensive search, a new location was found in the form of an old army base. The existing halls and the office were completely renovated, renovated and optimally equipped for small-scale production.
