History

The factory was founded in 1846. Since then, the factory has expanded several times, increasing both production and the number of employees. In 1880 there were already 1890 people working in the factory. After the one in Fiume (Rijeka), it was the second largest cigarette factory in Hungary and in the entire Austro-Hungarian Monarchy.
