There are great opportunities for strengthening Serbia's business ties with Spain in the sector of trade, but also tourism, agriculture and energy, Minister of Trade and Services Slobodan Milosavljevic stated after yesterday's meeting with members of the Confederation of Employers and Industries of Spain (CEOE) in the Serbian Government building.

"We also discussed the interest of small and medium-sized companies from Spain to enter Serbia's market, as well as the cooperation with the countries with which Serbia has signed free trade agreements," said Milosavljevic.

The Ministry of Trade and Services said in a statement that during the meeting, Spanish Ambassador to Serbia Inigo de Palacio Espana underlined that this is the first time Spain has sent such a high-level business delegation to Serbia.

The business delegation was led by Jose Luis Gonzalez Vallve, a board member of the CEOE, and it consisted of representatives of Spanish companies engaged in engineering, industrial construction, eolic energy, control systems and electric power infrastructure.
