Another Industrial Zone Planned in Serbia

We intend to open another industrial zone in Serbia, due to a great interest of, not just Turkish investors, but investors from the whole world, announced Serbian Finance Minister Sinisa Mali, who is leading Serbia's delegation on a one-day visit to Turkey.

The Serbian delegation met on Sunday with Turkish Minister of Industry and Technology Mustafa Varank and they talked about the opening of a large new industrial zone in Serbia in order to enable foreign investors to operate efficiently in Serbia.

– For this reason, we visited the Gebze Industrial Zone, which is known for its successful operations, and it is they who will help us do something similar with our new industrial zone – Mali said.

He reminded that there were 15 active free zones in Serbia, but that the number should increase, considering the desire of foreign investors to work in Serbia. This, he adds, always means more work for people in Serbia, an increased market competitiveness, and with that higher wages as well.

Mali reminded that many successful Turkish companies operated in Serbia and that there were more than 800 at that moment, whereas in 2015 there had been around 130. As he said, Turkish companies employ around 10,000 people in Serbia.
