  • Emil Frey Group plans to increase revenue in Slovenia from 700 million euros to 1 billion euros within five years.
  • The group will handle Fuso truck representation for 21 dealerships, including German ones, and plans to hire over 25 new specialists.

The Emil Frey Group is defying a trend of multinational companies leaving Slovenia, choosing instead to expand its operations and maintain its regional headquarters in the country. The automotive group, which represents 13 car brands and three commercial vehicle brands, currently employs over 500 people in Slovenia.

Director Joลพko Tomลกiฤ announced ambitious growth plans, aiming to boost annual revenue from 700 million euros to 1 billion euros within the next five years. This expansion includes taking on the representation for Fuso trucks across 21 dealerships, even those in Germany. To support this growth, the company intends to hire more than 25 new specialists.

While many international firms are relocating their regional support to Zagreb, Emil Frey's decision to invest and grow in Slovenia highlights a contrarian strategy. The company's commitment suggests confidence in the Slovenian market and its strategic importance within the broader European network.
