Port of Rijeka

Koper – Port operator Luka Koper generated EUR 114.7 million in net sales revenue in the first six months of the year, which is up 7% compared to the same period last year. Net profit increased by 2% to EUR 15.4 million, and operating profit (EBIT) was up 3% to EUR 17.7 million.

Sales revenue was 5% above plan, net profit by 49% and EBIT by 51%, reads the group’s unaudited report.

These investments are of vital importance to ensure the port continues to be competitive with the rapidly modernising neighbouring ports in Trieste and Rijeka.

Media reports in Croatia have suggested that Oreskovic's government will focus on reforms of the public administration and the healthcare system, as well as on reducing the number of state agencies.
