ABOUT THE INDUSTRIAL PARK
NOVA GRADIŠKA
The Industrial Park Nova Gradiška (IPNG) is one of the largest business zones in Slavonia. This entrepreneurial zone has a very favourable geo-transport position, considering that it is located right next to an international motorway (E-70), an international railroad route that connects the Western European countries with the countries of South-Eastern Europe and the Middle East, which is the foundation for the development of Nova Gradiška as a transport, logistics, and distribution centre, and it is only 25 km away from the state border with Bosnia and Herzegovina, which means that there is potential for international cooperation. The Industrial Park Nova Gradiška has well-developed infrastructure and utility capacities (transport, energy, water supply, sewer). After this investment, the Nova Gradiška industrial zone will become one of the largest and most desirable investment destinations in this part of the region. It is suitable for the development of various industries: metal processing, electronics and electrical engineering, food processing, wood processing, and other processing industries.
The Industrial Park Nova Gradiška also houses the Local Development Agency and the Agency for Encouraging Investments, with the same name – Industrijski park Nova Gradiška d.o.o. for development and investments. The company was founded in 2006 and it is 100% owned by the City of Nova Gradiška.
In 2015, the IPNG received the award for the second-best entrepreneurial zone in Nova Gradiška
With this project, the IPNG will become a fully infrastructurally equipped and desirable investment destination. This will enable the strengthening of the capacities of the businesses for the development of innovative products and services, it will provide encouragement for the improvement of the competitiveness of the business sector and for creating and attracting innovative and technology-oriented businesses to the technologically-intensive sectors, with special emphasis on efficient environmental and resource management
Currently, there are 16 investors within the City’s industrial zone, which further confirms the good potential of Nova Gradiška as an investment destination, their total investment value is EUR 60 million and they employ about 600 employees. Further development and expansion of the industrial zone, infrastructure access for all the plots, and the construction and furnishing of new entrepreneurial incubators have the goal of attracting more investors, opening new businesses, and creating opportunities for creating new jobs, which will ultimately result in economic progress for the entire City.
