Investment Opportunities in Serbia

3. Foreign Investments in Serbia Many world-renowned companies have recognized Serbia’s potential and decided to locate their operations in the country: FIAT Group, Panasonic, Sagem, Sitel, Pompea, Nestle and many others. For some of them, Serbia serves as a manufacturing hub that enables duty-free exports to a market of almost 1 billion people. Others are attracted by our country’s strong level of English language proficiency, highly-skilled and easily-trained workforce and the extremely low 10% corporate profit tax rate. Regardless of the reason for their initial interest, businesses that decide to set up operations or conduct trade in Serbia encounter a reliable and dynamic country that affords them a much greater opportunity than they initially perceived.
