At an urgently called meeting, which was held yesterday (May 13, 2010), the City Assembly of Leskovac accepted the Memorandum signed by that city, the Government of Serbia and company Falke on allotment of space in northern industrial zone to that company for construction of a factory.

- We are, actually, asked to allow the arrival of a big investor, famous European socks manufacturer, in Leskovac - Mayor Slobodan Kocić said at the meeting.

He explained the urgency of the meeting by the fact that the commission that was formed that day in the Government of Serbia should submit a proposal on May 14 that the part of the state-owned land, occupied by ruined factories Leteks and Inkol, be first allotted to Leskovac and then rented to Falke on the period of 99 years.

- That decision will be confirmed by the Government of Serbia at a telephone meeting - Kocić announced.

Falke will have an office space built at the surface of 13,000 square meters and employ 600 people, and it will be freed from paying taxes if it invests minimum EUR 6m.

The city is bound by the Memorandum to, among the rest, use its own funds to tear down old buildings and clean the terrain, reconstruct and build new access roads and provide electrical and telecommunications infrastructure.

German investor will get EUR 3m from the Republic of Serbia for the employment of new workers.

Kocić sees this decision as historical and says that, thanks to the arrival of Falke, large number of potential investors got interested in Leskovac.
