Supply Opportunities in Central and Eastern Europe
June 1, 2023
Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) is home to some of the most competitive economies in Europe. The markets are well integrated in European supply chains and many local companies boast significant experience in producing goods for worldwide export markets. This region has enjoyed an outstanding level of economic development, growing faster than nearly all other economies outside of Asia. The leading CEE economies, namely the Czech Republic and Poland, are now on par with those of several Western European countries. The ongoing global supply chain crisis and shortage of materials have led many U.S. and European companies to consider new nearshoring/sourcing venues as an alternative to Asia, which puts the entire CEE region into the spotlight.
This report maps the supply chain capabilities and sourcing strengths of three CEE countries – the Czech Republic, Poland, and Romania – and delivers detailed information on key sectors.
