Mr Miloš Zeman, on his visit to the Republic of Serbia 10 – 12 September 2019 www.komora.cz 3 Ladies and gentlemen, I extend a warm greeting to you on the occasion of my official state visit to Serbia, where I am returning after five years. I am very pleased that, as president, I can take this opportunity to contribute to the promotion of relations between the Czech Republic and the Republic of Serbia, which, thanks to their tra- ditional historical and human ties, are deep and wide-ranging. The Czech Republic supports the integration of Serbia in the EU and gladly passes on to it its experience of the transforma- tion processes. I am pleased to be able to repay today´s Presi- dent Aleksandar Vučić, at least partly for his hospitality during his stay in the Czech Republic in October at this year´s V4+ presidential summit. Last year, the mutual trade turnover between the Czech Republic and Serbia increased by more than 25 percent exceeding EUR 1 billion. The Czech Republic welcomes technically skilled work- ers from Serbia coming to CR. To facilitate their arrival, at the end of last year the Czech Republic launched a special visa ap- plication programme with an annual quota of 2 000 employ- ment visas. I am pleased to note that Czech firms in Serbia are active, especially in the areas of telecommunications, banking, engineering, heat supply systems, and power engineering, as well as water management and transport. Ladies and gentlemen, I am firmly convinced that you will find promising partnerships in Serbia and that the current visit will help strengthen economic cooperation with Serbia, and with the Western Balkans in general, a region which is one of the priorities of Czech foreign policy. I hope that during your busy programme you will also find time to enjoy the beauties of this historically, culturally and culinary rich country. I wish you the best of success. Miloš Zeman President of the Czech Republic 4 Dear friends, I am pleased to address you on behalf of the Czech Chamber of Commerce entrusted with the organisation of the business mis- sion, which accompanies the President of the Czech Republic, H.E. Mr Miloš Zeman, on his official visit to the Republic of Serbia. Economic cooperation between the Czech Republic and the Republic of Serbia dating long back into the past has been for years on a very good standard, mainly thanks to the activity of Czech and Serbian companies. In recent years, mutual eco- nomic relations have been characterised by an increasing trade turnover, especially in respect of Czech exports, with the Czech business community showing growing interest in this impor- tant Western Balkan country. Serbia is one of the priority trade partners of the Czech Republic. Czech business people offer co- operation especially in the traditional sectors, such as transport infrastructure, engineering, the power industry, water manage- ment and the environment. Areas, which have assumed special importance recently, are small hydroelectric power stations, in- vestment in the manufacture of waste management equipment and services, e.g. recycling. Currently, Czech investments in Ser- bia are realised mainly at the level of small and medium-size en- terprises. In the future, wider cooperation is to be expected not only in trading, but also in investment projects, partly in connec- tion with Serbia´s approaching full membership of the European Union, which the Czech Republic supports. I am firmly convinced that this mission will contribute to the further development of mutual commercial and investment cooperation between the Czech Republic and the Republic of Serbia. Thanks to the Czech Republic´s industrial tradition and technological in- ventiveness Czech firms are among the best worldwide and can offer globally competitive products and services. I am pleased that the Czech Chamber of Commerce with the support of the President of the Czech Republic may help with seeking new partnerships and striking new joint projects. I wish you the best of success in your negotiations.

  • Czech Republic in the Republic of Serbia
    | Interview H. E. Mr. Tomaš Kuchta, Ambassador of the Czech Republic in the Republic of Serbia Czech Republic Nataša Stojković Photo: Private archive, Freepik, Unsplash Czechia, officially the Czech Republic, is a continental country in Central Europe, whereas in the geopolitical context, the UN lists it as a country in Eastern Europe. The Czech Republic is bordered by Poland to the north, Germany to the northwest and west, Austria to the south, and Slovakia to the east. It has an area of 78,866 km². The capital and largest city is Prague (1.2 million inhabitants), an important tourist destination. The Czech Republic consists of the following historical territories: Czechia (Bohemia), Moravia and Czech Silesia. This trinity is displayed on the national coat of arms. The Czech state was formed in the second half of the 9th century, when the first Czech duke, Borivoj I, from the Přemyslid dynasty was enthroned. In the 10th and 11th century, the country was consolidated, merged with Moravia and became a kingdom. The Czech landscape is very diverse. A river basin is situated in the west of the Czech Republic, forming a plateau shaped like a rhombus surrounded by four connected highlands: the Giant Mountains (Krkonoše) in the northeastern Sudety region (where Mount Sněžka, the highest peak in the state (1,602 m), is situated), the Ore Mountains in the northwest, the Bohemian forest in the southwest and the Bohemian-Moravian Highlands in the southeast. It is traversed by the Labe and Vltava rivers. The Charles University in Prague, founded in the 1340s (probably in 1348), was the first university in Central Europe and in all Slovenian countries.

  • Phenomenal Results of Mattoni 1873 in 2019
    Phenomenal results of Mattoni 1873 in 2019 Praha, March 3rd, 2020 Mattoni 1873, the Central-European leader in soft drink market, has experienced another ground-breaking year in their history. The Group increased their revenue by 77% to 15,5 bn CZK and EBITDA increased by 74%.

The central-European Group based in CZ produced more than 1,6 billion of bottles last year. The year 2019 was already a fifth record year in a row. The phenomenal results were reached thanks to organic growth and acquisitions in Central and South-East Europe. “Last year was another extraordinary one for us. And I am glad for that, as we have adopted a new identity, which links our past and tradition with our future, and we have confirmed our commitment to long-term growth and responsible behaviour in our business day-to-day life” summarizes Alessandro Pasquale, Mattoni 1873 CEO. Acquiring Knjaz Miloš together with PepsiCo In August 2019 Mattoni 1873 acquired the Serbian leader in mineral water and soft drinks market via a joint venture with PepsiCo.
