Dutch Woody World to manufacture prefab houses in Priboj Free Zone – Production to start in June 2017

Representatives of the local self-government in Priboj and the Dutch company Woody World signed an agreement on the lease of 3,000 m2 of production facilities in the brownfield section of the Priboj Free Zone on December 14, 2016.

The Dutch company will produce exclusive recreational prefabricated houses under favorable business conditions offered by the Free Zone, and export them from Priboj to the Western European market.

Woody World has years of tradition of manufacturing modular recreational prefabricated houses and has production capacities in the Netherlands and Croatia.

One of the three co-owners and the director of the company, Bernard Kordic, born in Priboj, says that the completion of the adaptation of the production space in the Free Zone is expected in the first half 2017, whereas the production process is planned to start in June 2017.

According to the company’s business plan, the initiation of the second phase has been projected for 2018, which entails the production of furniture and equipment for the interior and the exterior of modular recreational prefabricated houses.

– This is a company which will employ around 40 workers in various stages, with a tendency of growth, and the added benefit is that the arrival of Woody World will lead to a multiplication of effects through the process of joining small family businesses from Priboj, which will work as subcontractors, thereby increasing the positive economic effects – said the assistant to the president of the municipality for the local economic development, Jasnim Hodzic.
