Nokia street

While playing around with a company search service (FN Cegtar Light) I typed in Nokia.

Looks like Nokia has two hungarian subsidiaries, Nokia Hungary Kft (Kft is similar to the German GmbH and the English-speaking world’s LLC) and Nokia Komarom Kft. The latter is located in the city of Komarom and it is a research center if I recall it correctly.

This is not really interesting until we look at the headquarter’s address: 2900 Komárom, Nokia utca 1.

Jesus, we got a Nokia street!

It is not really common here that streets are named after companies, however, some older hungarian companies do have streets named after them, like Videoton, but Nokia is a foreign one and not operating here since more than 20 years.

I am curious when will we have a local One Infinite Loop or One Tesco Way :)

Update: looks like this is old news, Index had an article about it two years ago. There is also a Samsung square and Agip street.
