The municipality of East New Sarajevo is the largest in Republika Srpska in terms of the number of opened entrepreneurial ventures per capita, said Jovan Katić, the mayor of the municipality, to SRNA.
Katić stated that entrepreneurial activity is the largest economic sector, with the largest number of workforce based on these activities.
He emphasized that the construction sector should not be neglected either, as construction companies have the largest number of employees.
“It is known that in the municipality of East New Sarajevo, the construction sector is the most developed branch of the economy,” Katić said.
He noted that there are plans for the development of a business zone within the former “Raop” factory premises in the near future.
According to him, a private investor is currently working on a master plan where there is the possibility of attracting new entrepreneurs from neighboring countries, primarily from Serbia.
“With their arrival, we expect the opening of a large number of job positions for the residents of the city of East Sarajevo, and certainly from abroad,” said Katić, adding that there are plenty of opportunities in this municipality for improving the economic sector.
