Poland

Poland is located in Central Europe, with access to the Baltic Sea and borders with Germany, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Ukraine, Belarus, Lithuania and Russia's Kaliningrad region. With GDP of approximately EUR 923 billion in 2025, it is the largest economy among the EU member states in Central and Eastern Europe and the sixth-largest in the European Union, benefiting from a sizeable domestic market and a strategic location connecting Western and Eastern Europe.

Poland has a large and diversified manufacturing base, with the automotive industry as one of its key pillars. Volkswagen and Stellantis operate vehicle plants in the country, and Toyota manufactures engines and transmissions in the country, alongside an extensive network of international Tier 1 suppliers and local component manufacturers. Poland has also become one of Europe's leading centers for electric-vehicle battery production, anchored by LG Energy Solution's plant, one of the largest of its kind in Europe. Automotive and battery manufacturing is concentrated mainly in the west and southwest of the country, particularly in Lower Silesia, Silesia and Greater Poland.

Beyond automotive, Poland has well-developed electronics, household appliances, machinery, furniture and food-processing sectors, as well as one of Europe's largest business services sectors, concentrated in cities such as Warsaw, Kraków and Wrocław. Its skilled workforce and extensive supplier base continue to make Poland an attractive destination for international business and investment.
