Ambassador's visit to Southern Jutland

On 22 March 2017, the Czech Ambassador Jiří Brodský visited Southern Jutland for the meetings with representatives from public and corporate sector. The working visit in cities of Kolding and Vejle included talks with selected Danish companies about their possible involvement in the Czech market and development of bilateral trade.

The one day visit began in Vejle, a city with the second largest port in Denmark. Vejle is nicknamed “Danish Manchester” because it represented a heart of Denmark's textile industry in 19th and 20th century. In Vejle, the Ambassador met with the Mayor Jens Ejner Christensen and representatives of companies from Vejle municipality who are interested in expanding their businesses into the Czech Republic. More information about the visit in the Vejle municipality can be found here.
