A part of this investment constituted proceeds for acquiring the last production units of the Tallinn-based textile firm Marat, which next to Kreenholm, used to be the second biggest manufacturer of textile consumer products during the Soviet era.
In addition to this, Protex, which engages in production of knitwear, sportswear and workwear, also unveiled its new head office in Estonia's Pärnu, employing 14 administrative staff, taking the total staff engaged by the company in Pärnu to 145.
