"I am delighted that today we are launching the Kaufland Business Academy. As a socially responsible company and one of the largest employers in the country, we realize the importance of investing in young people and supporting their career guidance and development right from the university bench. I believe that Kaufland Business Academy is another example of our successful cooperation with UNWE, which will enhance the academic education of students with examples from practice.
