History and Development of the Company
Euro-Box Sp. z o.o. was founded in 1992 by Bernard Jakubowski. Its beginnings were challenging, with operations initially based in Wrocław. However, logistical issues due to the distance from the German border soon led to the company relocating to Ługów near Świebodzin. This marked the start of development on the grounds of a former manor farm, which had served as a state agricultural enterprise (PGR) in the post-war years. The property, purchased in 1995, underwent extensive modernization and expansion carried out by Euro-Box.
Initially, the company specialized in the trade of locks, later expanding its operations to include the sale of metal products and powder paints, which were subsequently used as components for the production of metal enclosures. It was the high-quality manufacturing of these enclosures that built the company's capital, enabling further growth and investment in new technologies and infrastructure.
In 1996, the company installed a stork nest on a pole, which quickly became a symbol of its closeness to nature and inspired the creation of the company logo, featuring a nest with two storks. Since then, the nest has become an integral part of the company’s landscape, with storks returning each year to raise their young. To date, 84 young storks have hatched there, a source of pride and joy for the company.
