balkan investment

The Balkan countries are becoming attractive investment locations and alternatives to offshoring to distant Eastern European and Asian regions. By offering attractive tax rates, innovative location promotion and low wages, they are interesting options in the competition between the regions. Numerous and increasingly better-educated people with roots in Southeast Europe live in Switzerland, Germany and Austria. They are a valuable asset when entering new markets and building new production facilities. There consist few cultural differences between Middle Europe and the Balkans. Meanwhile the region has very good transport connections to Central Europe.

These are best conditions to engage with the development of business links to the Balkans. Do you consider exporting your products to the Southeast European region? Do you identify new procurement markets? Do you want to offshore your services or production in order to reduce your direct production costs? Is buying a local company a strategic option to position your business on the market in Southeast Europe?
