Investment in tourism gives manifold return

Belgrade, 22 February 2018

Prime Minister Ana Brnabic stated today at the opening of the 40th jubilee International Tourism Fair in Belgrade that tourism is one of the most successful and most profitable sectors in Serbia and that investments in this area will continue.

Brnabic explained that it proved that for every dinar invested in tourism, we get back €1 and that every guest who comes here tomorrow brings someone else with them.

You represent the most beautiful face of our country, which was visited by 1.5 million foreign tourists last year alone, who got to know it and started loving it, which is 17 percent more than the previous year, the Prime Minister said.

She added that last year the number of domestic tourists increased by eight percent, the total number of tourists by 12 percent, and the foreign currency inflow exceeded €1.1 billion.

Brnabic pointed out that thanks to this offer, on the first day of the new year, CNN recommended Serbia as one of the ten must-visit destinations for 2018, while the New York Times ranked it among the 52 places to be visited in 2018.

Thanks to you, Serbia is rediscovered and more and more people get to see its beauty, hospitality, richness and its welcoming spirit, the Prime Minister told the tourist workers.

The tourism fair under the slogan "Holiday is waiting for you" has been opened at the Belgrade fairgrounds. This year the partner country is Greece, and the fair gathers 1,200 exhibitors from 55 countries.
