Prime Minister Kurti’s complete statement:
We are here in Peja at the “Gacaferi Glass” factory, a family company that dates back to the early 80s of the last century. They have 18 workers and have managed to not only sell their production, plastic and aluminum doors and windows and glass panes in the Kosovar market, but also to export even to Germany and Switzerland. They have benefited from measure 2.1 for subsidizing investment loans for a very valuable machine which helps in the quality products that this factory has. Pneumatic but also automatic and robotic machines that do welding, cutting and so on. On this occasion, together with the Minister of Economy, Artane Rizvanolli, we expressed the support of the Government of the Republic of Kosovo for these small and medium-sized businesses to become medium-sized as soon as possible and one day even large so that they also have a profit as a private company with owners and workers, but at the same time the economy of our country should be more and more advanced.
I thank the Gacaferi family very much for their hospitality and for this tireless commitment to do this professional and honest work.
With us is the manager Rrona and her parent and our minister.
