The Serbian city of Jagodina is preparing for a new economic boom following the official confirmation that German industrial giant Fischer will invest in the construction of a second factory in the region, BalkanEngineer.com learned from the business portal eKapija. The new facility will be located in the city’s industrial zone, in close proximity to the company’s first plant, which opened several years ago.

The investment is aimed at expanding the production of high-tech components for the automotive industry, with the new facility expected to implement state-of-the-art automated processes.
