” We delivered five kitchen in Istria,,” said Hribar, who is ready to drive manufacturers in Zagreb for Slovenian customers when Ikea store open in 2014. year. Last year he had 72 thousand sales, which is 10 thousand less than last year, but this year he recorded grew by 40 percent after the Croatian market opened doors. Entrepreneur Ales Bogataj from Novo Mesto thinks much like Hribar, who deals with installation and maintenance of furniture. “From furniture montage from Zagreb Ikea we’ll earn additional money because we’re running out of work,” said, adding that demanding of Slovenian households, who are their clients for interior design and other carpentry services, is lower this than last year.
On the other hand, for Slovenia carpenters coming of Ikea is bad news because, as Bogataj says, it bring lower quality and lower prices to consumers, “and as people today primarily look at the money, the local carpenters will lose their work.”
