Plans to convert the former Rafako plant in Raciborz into a Polish defense-production hub moved forward on Wednesday, October 28, 2026. MilMag reported that Jelcz, Rosomak and ZM Bumar-Labedy received investment-support decisions covering projects worth up to 386 million PLN in total.

Former Rafako site gains new role

The Jelcz and Rosomak projects will use the existing industrial infrastructure at the former Rafako plant. The plans include a Jelcz vehicle factory and a Rosomak hull-production center, expanding domestic capacity for equipment supplied to Poland's armed forces.

The Jelcz facility is expected to employ more than 500 people and reach annual production capacity of up to 700 vehicles. The support mechanism is structured as a corporate income tax exemption tied to the declared investments, rather than as a one-off cash subsidy.

For Rafako, the development changes the industrial outlook for its former Raciborz site, but the announcement concerns projects by Polish Armaments Group companies rather than a new operating contract for Rafako itself. The investment also underlines the strategic value of the existing industrial complex as Poland expands domestic defense manufacturing.
