Pajtić estimated that the acquisition of Novi Sad-based Koteks by Viscofan Group was an example of successful privatization and that, as such, it represented an invitation for other companies from Spain to invest in Serbia.

The investment of 30 million euros at the time of the global economic crisis is extremely important for development of industrial sector in Vojvodina – Pajtić said and pointed to the significance of the plans of the factory’s management for creation of 200 new jobs.

Pajtić introduced the delegation of the Spanish group to the stimulus measures from the Vojvodina Government’s programme for creation of new jobs.

Koteks Viscofan is a member of Viscofan Group, which operates in Spain, Serbia, Germany, USA, Mexico, Brazil, Czech Republic, Great Britain, and China.
