With our marketing campaign, we have already been able to position ourselves as a serious player in the Serbian market.<\/p>\n<p>We are very proud to see that our services are in such high demand after such a short time. Especially the groupage transport we launched from Germany, Austria and Italy is a very big success for us. Recently added were Militzer &amp; M\u00fcnch groupage traffics for exports to Montenegro, Northern Macedonia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo and Albania.<\/p>\n<p><b>How many Militzer &amp; M\u00fcnch locations are there in Serbia?<\/b><br \/>\n<b><br \/>\nFilip Simovic:<\/b>\u00a0One office is in Dobanovci \u2013 an industrial zone near Belgrade \u2013 and the other is at Leskovac, in the south. In Dobanovci, we are currently renting a 1,000 square meter storage area for customs clearance services, and we are constructing our own warehouse and office premises at this time. The property will cover 10,000 square meters. In May\/June we will already be able to take into operation the first 5,000 square meters.<\/p>\n<p><b>How is the cooperation with other Militzer &amp; M\u00fcnch country units?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Nikola Vasiljevic:<\/b>\u00a0We soon realized that we can always cooperate with the entire Militzer &amp; M\u00fcnch Group in a reliable and trustful way. As many German companies have production plants in Serbia, we often handle projects together with the German Militzer &amp; M\u00fcnch unit. Especially the collaboration with the German Militzer &amp; M\u00fcnch branches in Stockstadt, Nuremberg and Hof works excellently. The German colleagues give us their full support.<\/p>\n<p><b>What services are you offering in Serbia at this time, and what services are planned for the near future?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Filip Simovic:<\/b>\u00a0At the moment, our focus is on road transports \u2013 part loads, full loads and refrigerated transports. We also offer the whole range of customs services and warehousing. We aim to extend our activities also to air and sea transport as well as rail freight.<\/p>\n<p><b>What industries are you serving?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Nikola Vasiljevic:<\/b>\u00a0Most of the transports we handle are for companies from the chemistry, textile, automotive, pharmaceutical and beverages sectors. There is lots of investment in Serbia at this time, mainly from abroad. Most investors are from the automotive industry, and to a large extent, they are from Germany. Which is why we at Militzer &amp; M\u00fcnch Serbia place a strong focus on this sector.<\/p>\n<p><b>Have you already done first transports in the field of project logistics?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Filip Simovic:<\/b>\u00a0In November 2019, we successfully handled the first project transport. For a renowned Serbian textile manufacturer, we transported big machinery for textile production.
