LÉDEM 2000 Kft., Gyöngyös

LEDEM Deposit Company was established in 1993 and it was the first private venture that has started mending and furbishing pneumatic brakes of commercial road vehicles. The lack of the repairing culture of pneumatic brakes and the high prices of new equipments were motivating the foundation of enterprise. The specialists of those companies, which were mending commercial vehicles, used to repair pneumatic brakes only in a complex method, namely to exchange them as one unit. This expensive procedure was replaced by the renewing activity of LEDEM Deposit Company with its high technological and aesthetic quality. The venture worked mainly with the pneumatic sets of IKARUS buses in the first times, and year by year reparation of new, additional products was taken to the palette. First of all VOLAN Companies showed interest in refurbished products therefore VOLAN and other Transport companies became the 80 percent of our customers in a short time. LEDEM Deposit Company started its activity with two people in a 40 square meter service station. In 1995 LEDEM Deposit Company became a brand mercantile and later the mending partner of Knorr-Bremse Fékrendszerek Ltd. (break system company) in the field of sales of new products. The company grew out the available area within three years and bought the premises of Waterworks Company of Heves County on the present place. The buildings of that area, which was 13 000 square meters, were in quite bed condition. The place had to be renovated completely, not only the buildings but the surroundings as well (landscaping, building of new fountains, etc.). LEDEM 2000 Ltd. was founded in 1996. Thanks to the large-scale development, LEDEM considerably exceeded the level of a small enterprise, and forming a factory-sized organization has been started. The increasing was perceptible not only in changing of infrastructure and the number of employees but also in the degree of the trade, which increased to the triple.
