Amelo, a company within the Trans Oil group, will construct a corn processing plant on the former Šećerana site in Sremska Mitrovica. The project, announced by Mayor Branislav Nedimović, is set to begin construction this fall with an investment exceeding €30 million. The new factory will employ around 150 workers and produce corn starch for the food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries.
Mayor Nedimović highlighted this as one of the largest food industry investments in Serbia in the past 40–50 years.
