Well... high time for Polish investments abroad. Even in spite of a crisis(?).

It gives me a lump in my throat, a feeling of pride to know that the next time I open a can of dog food, I could be peeling the lid off the fruit of Polish investment.

Stop living like a student and buy some proper food ;-) I've got mixed feelings on this factory opening. It's great of course that something is being opened rather than closed down, but I can almost hear the locals getting ready to say: "Nah, you have to speak Polish if you wanna work there mate!" Whether that's true or not, the owners will face an up-hill battle convincing some people otherwise. Why wasn't it opened in Poland ?
