Americans to build factory in Vranje?

A famous U.S. manufacturer of products for the automotive industry may soon open a factory in Vranje. The city officials say it is "still too early to speak about that," but they confirm that negotiations with the investor are in progress.
Allegedly, the American investor is very satisfied with the terms and conditions offered by Vranje although several more offers from Serbia and Macedonia are still under consideration.
Perica Jankovic, an alderman in charge of economic affairs, confirms that negotiations are underway, adding that the public will be notified after an agreement is reached.
- We are constantly negotiating not only with this company, but also with other firms interested in investing in our city because that is in the interest of our citizens. However, being a serious partner, we respect the potential investors' request for confidentiality while negotiations are underway - says Jankovic.
Unofficially, this company will be training workers in a rented factory space until its own factory is finished.
