The president of The Provincial Government Igor
Mirović and the mayor of Indjija, Vladimir Gak, have opened a new
factory for the production of construction materials in Indjija.
After 8 years of stagnation, production of bricks and building blocks has been launched
again and new 60 jobs have been created. „Univerzum-Kubisnica“ from the City of
Arandjelovac has invested near 2 millions of euros in modernization of
production lines, robotic machines are among the new equipment.
„Our main goal was to run factory again after
8 years of stagnation. We have found as very useful thing that new local
authorities have sped up the procedure of Building Permits Issuing and that was
a trigger for a new beginning. We will not stop at this point, our plans are to
continue with equipment modernization and to expand our production capacities and our
product portfolio in the next few years,“ said one of
the owners, Branko Spasojević.
Mr. Gak has thanked to investors because they
have found the way to come back and to continue with investments and because
they have created 60 new jobs. He was also pleased to see robotizing of
production process.
Mr. Mirović pointed out the fact that construction industry in Serbia is
recovering and that the construction materials market is growing up after few
years of pause. „We appreciate every investor, but when we have domestic
investment it has special meaning for us. The Provincial
Government has goal that all 45 cities and municipalities in
Vojvodina have at least one new factory with 50 to 60 new jobs as soon as
possible and that will provide Vojvodina to keep status of the most developed
region in Serbia,“ said Mr. Mirovic.
