Within implementation of the Aftercare Program (the post investment support to foreign investors in B&H), the FIPA representatives visited on 10th April 2012 the production facilities of the company Argeta d.o.o. in Hadzici near Sarajevo.
In Bosnia and Herzegovina, the production of this well-known brand was launched in 2006 in the modern equipped factory in Hadzici through an investment of 26 million Euros.
Investors from Slovenia – the company Droga Kolinska, part of the Atlantic Group, decided to invest in Bosnia and Herzegovina, considering the fact that 60% of their total sale was related to the B&H market.
The factory in Hadzici currently has over 80 workers who realize an annual production of 5 million cans, with a constant increase of production.
Entire production process of Argeta is certified according to the highest hygiene requirements and general safety, while production is performed according to the standards of HACCAP, Halal, ISO 9001, ISO 14000 and FSSC 22000.
The Argeta d.o.o. Hadzic factory is the first in Bosnia and Herzegovina, which received FSSC 22000 - the highest international certification for the food safety.
According to the Director of production, Mr. Samir Brodovića, investors are satisfied with the operations in Bosnia and Herzegovina and their goal is a long term presence and strengthening at the B&H market.
Argeta was declared the most significant Greenfield investment in B&H for 2006 within the "Selection of the Most Significant Investors“ Event that FIPA organizes every year.
