KOSOVO Agriculture & Food Industry Meridian Corporation Dynamic Group Welcomes Joint Venture Partners The Meridian Corporation offers outstanding potential for foreign investors. The family-owned group with 170 employees was relaunched after the war in 1999 and has since achieved significant growth. Meridian has operations in 12 locations and is one of Kosovo’s biggest distributors of beverages and foods, including fresh and frozen foods as well as organic products and international brands of beverages. Meridian works with over 4,000 vendors in Kosovo, including retail chains, supermarkets, drug stores and the HoReCa (hotel, restaurant and catering) sector. The Meridian group includes foods and beverages divisions, Montazhi (construction), and Energoinvest (energy activities). “Montazhi is known for its construction of both residential and commercial buildings as well as electrical installations, heating and cooling systems, and water and waste treatment facilities. Energoinvest produces electrical equipment, transformer Hakif Gashi, CEO stations and more. We acquired both companies a couple of years ago and now we are looking for partners and joint ventures,” explains CEO Hakif Gashi. Meridian is especially interested in a joint venture in the fast growing food and beverages sector since the group already has the necessary facilities, resources and building land. “We are looking for a partner who can start up food and beverage production with us,” Hakif Gashi explains. Meridian eventually plans to expand its thriving food and beverage distribution beyond Kosovo, to Macedonia, Montenegro, Albania and Serbia. Significant potential in energy sector Both Montazhi and Energoinvest offer strong growth potential as well. Hakif Gashi points out, “Energoinvest has the most potential because Kosovo’s energy sector is very undeveloped. We anticipate significant growth in the near future. We are looking for joint ventures and partners that can help us take Energoinvest and Montazhi to the next level concerning technology, know-how, experience, access to new markets, and financing.” Energoinvest has already served Kosovo Electrical Corporation (KEK), private companies, power plants and several mines. Kosovo has outstanding prospects, Hakif Gashi believes, and Meridian is the ideal local partner for investors. He says, “Meridian offers future partners a creative and capable management, dedicated and motivated employees, efficient business processes and structure, a well-established local presence with expeditious and qualitative services, 17 hectares of building land, and construction capacity. In addition, doing business is not a problem in Kosovo. We have the same standards and values as in the EU and we hope our ties with the EU will grow even stronger in the future.” Meridian Corporation LL.C Bul. ‘ Bill Clinton’, p.n Zona industriale 10000 Prishtina, Kosovo Tel.: + 381 38 541 521 Fax: + 381 38 541 524 meridian@meridian-ks.com www.meridian-ks.com 50
