Chinese Investors Eye Concrete Future in Trebinje

A delegation from Jiangsu explores Trebinje’s industrial promise as part of a growing Sino-Bosnian investment wave

In the quiet southern reaches of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the historic town of Trebinje is drawing attention far beyond its medieval walls.

A delegation of Chinese investors from Jiangsu New Power Energy Co Ltd, led by CEATEC and supported by Foreign Investment Promotion Agency (FIPA) in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), recently toured the city with plans to lay foundations—literally.

Marko Kubatlija, director of FIPA, guided the group in collaboration with local officials, including Mayor Mirko Ćurić, showcasing Trebinje’s potential across tourism, agriculture, energy, and, crucially, industry.

The visitors expressed particular interest in launching the production of concrete blocks and bricks—a tangible step in Bosnia’s quest for industrial revival.

Two potential investment sites were inspected, both tied to the city’s Free Trade Zone, a strategic incentive for foreign investors.

While the Balkans have seen increasing Chinese engagement in infrastructure and energy, Trebinje could soon become a brick-and-mortar symbol of deeper economic ties.
