Publication 20 years of Delta Holdinga

Export to foreign exchange
In the 1990s, the international community ruled in its blockade
of Serbia, among other things, that a company that exported
goods from the state and had foreign exchange, could, in
the absence of foreign exchange markets, import sufficient
products necessary to satisfy the needs of the population of
the country in isolation. In order to make a profit and provide
foreign exchange to cover imports, Delta started the export of
mushrooms, raspberries and other fruit varieties, along with
timber and processed wood products.
The agri-business has been up until today the reliable backbone
of Delta Holding’s twenty-year old business. It was not easy to
be engaged in foreign trade activities in the 1990s, as there was a
shortage of professional staff. A significant number of educated
and trained people left the country under sanctions so that
Delta had to start from scratch with the creation of its HR base.

PRVI SKOK 1991/2000. THE FIRST LEAP 1991/2000
“In the 1990s, the last century,
Delta became aware that the
Serbian agricultural sector could
be a business basis not only for
a private company but for the
economy of the whole country. It
was then that the company went
into the agri-business and has
remained in it up until today.”
