Within the Aftercare program representatives of FIPA visited on Friday 10 October 2014, the company Eden Garden Ltd. Istočno Sarajevo and met with the Director Mr Srđan Vranešević. The meeting was focused on business conditions in BiH, business environment and plans for the future investment.
Eden Garden was established in 2001 in BiH as a joint venture company with the Italian partners. Initially, the company was based on the production of iron parts for umbrellas manufactured in Italy. Since 2007, Mr Vranešević started its own production of the complete product and the exclusive representation contract with the Italian distributor was terminated in 2010. Since Eden Garden Ltd. acts on its own at the world market.
The company is engaged in manufacturing garden parasols and now employs 30 workers. They are export-oriented, and the EU countries, America and Asia are their main market customers. Lately Qatar and the Saudi Arabia show more interest in high-quality umbrellas.
Due to the growing demand and requirements of the international market, the management plans are expansion of production, reinvesting and hiring new workers.
