Grindeks representative L.

Consequently, on behalf of Grindeks, I would like to thank teachers for their invaluable contribution to our children’s education. We are delighted about every young student that is qualitatively prepared and wants to start with a practice in our company, and later become a highly qualified employee of Grindeks.”
