Serbian Minister of International Economic Relations Milan Parivodic said today that considering the fact that unemployment is the biggest challenge we are faced with, and foreign investment provides new jobs, it is particularly important that the state displays maximum efficiency in attracting foreign investment.

Parivodic inaugurated today in Celarevo the new production facility of the company Carlsberg Serbia, and said on the occasion that the new jobs provided by foreign investments are better paid and better organised.
The inauguration of the new facility in Celarevo worth €10 million has rounded up the investment cycle of this company for the current year.
President of the company Nils Anderson said that the firm will invest a further €15 million next year, and thus in 2007 it will exceed the obligation which it undertook two years ago when it took over the brewery in Celarevo.
The plan then was to invest a total of €100 million by 2010, and in the previous two years Carlsberg has invested more than €95 million in the modernisation of the facility in Celarevo, said Anderson. He added that this year 80 new workers were employed, and that the company plans to create the same number of jobs next year.
