"HOUSE OF REPUBLIKA SRPSKA" TO OPEN ITS DOORS IN VIENNA

The “House of Republika Srpska”, bringing together products from the well-known Hercegovačka kuća and Krajiška kuća, will officially open in Vienna on December 11, confirmed Veselin Dutina, director of the Trebinje Agrarian Fund.

“For the first time, Hercegovačka kuća will enter the EU market together with Krajiška kuća, uniting the two brands under one name — the House of Republika Srpska,” Dutina said.

He explained that an initial group of 10 to 15 local producers from Herzegovina will be represented in Vienna, all of whom have met the strict EU food-control and export standards required for placement on the Austrian market.

Since Austria is known for rigorous quality analyses and certification procedures, the product range in the House of Republika Srpska is expected to expand gradually in the coming period.

“This is a project we are truly proud of. When we opened Hercegovačka kuća, we could not have imagined that one day we would enter the EU market,” Dutina added.

The project has been realized in cooperation with members of the Serbian community and Serbian businesspeople in Vienna, as well as with the support of the Representative Office of Republika Srpska, all of whom played a key role in its organization and successful launch.

Dutina also announced that preparations are underway for the opening of a Hercegovačka kuća in Novi Sad, led by the Trebinje Agrarian Fund. He expressed gratitude to Herzegovinian producers who continue to expand their cooperation with Hercegovačka kuća year after year.
