Who we are

zvozniki.si,

a special project of Časnik Finance, the leading information source for the Slovenian business community, has been promoting exports from Slovenia and collaboration with exporters for more than three years.

We unite 75 supporters and 6 partners of the Izvozniki.si project: Ford, Generali, Petrol, Slovenske železnice, SRC and UniCredit Banka Slovenia.

In this brochure we present these companies, their goals and what Izvozniki.si is all about.

Every week we publish our news stories in the biggest Slovenian business daily Finance, and often in the biggest Slovenian business weekly Manager.

Every month we publish the magazine Slovenia Invites You! that presents successful Slovenian companies and opportunities for international cooperation. The magazine is published as a supplement to the leading business media in 10 different countries in their native language.

Every day we publish articles on our portal Izvozniki.si where we have built a community that is interested in stories about Slovenian exporters and the companies that are collaborating with them, their experiences from abroad and innovative ideas.

Every year Časnik Finance organises the Slovenian Export Conference and four Export Focuses in Slovenia.

With our media partners from SE Europe, we also organise conferences and events abroad within the joint project Biznis plus.

Throughout the year we are known for successful networking as we have organised numerous business meetings which have resulted in many partnerships and business agreements.

We will be delighted to hear from you, Izvozniki.si team

We have proudly cooperated in several Slovenian international success stories In the first months of 2017, Slovenian export is higher compared to the same period of 2016 and thus, its contribution to the economic growth.

This, in my opinion, reflects the ability of the domestic companies in combining global mindset with local knowledge.

Now, when the economic indicators show the market awakening, many individuals as well as businesses see this as an opportunity to spend, invest or expand. It is important that companies have a strategic partner at their side who knows them well, detects and understands their business needs and is able to propose appropriate solutions helping them to remain competitive and grow. I strongly believe that our cross-border

financial solutions for entrepreneurs facilitate more effective operations in multiple markets, and support our customers in reducing the risks associated with export activities.

For UniCredit, being a leading European bank means supporting the development of the communities where we live and work. During our presence on the Slovenian market since 1991 we are constantly increasing the number of retail clients as well as businesses, which we see as a confirmation of our unique mix of local and Group knowledge and experiences, supporting our clients’ ambitions.

We accompany and support 25 million clients globally, providing

Complete Solutions MUMESCo COMPLETE SOLUTIONS FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT Petrol Group is the largest Slovenian energy company and one of the largest Slovenian trade companies with an important role in the wider region. In line with the challenges of the modern world, we developed a range of complete solutions in the field of energy, infrastructure, buildings, environment and mobility over the last decades.

As the so-called company MUMESCo (Multi Utility, Mobility and Environmental Service Company) we are co-creating development of regions, municipalities, public and service sector, industry and households in one place. We are investing in projects of energy efficiency and renewable energy sources as momentum of development and guarantee the achievement of energy savings.

MUMESCo is a unique business concept of Petrol as an upgrade of terms MUSCO (Multi utility service company) and ESCO (Energy Service Company) to describe the energy company of the future.

More than 400 Petrol energy experts have successfully implemented hundreds of projects in the region of Central and Southeast Europe. We are committed to reducing energy consumption, which is important both from economic point of view as from the standpoint of maintaining natural balance.

The guide of the development of Petrol is comprehensive energy supply with an emphasis on the efficient use of energy and responsible management of resources, which leads to circular economy.

Our solutions include production, distribution and supply of energy, and efficiency is provided with the optimization of all the systems of distribution and operation and management of energy and water consumption. A sustainable circle is concluded by re-use of waste materials as sources of new energy and development of sustainable mobility with impressive results of energy, material and environmental savings.

ENERGY CONTRACTING Energy supply contracting and Energy performance contracting are the most common contracting models of energy project implementation. Their major advantage is that you do not need an initial financial investment, since the majority of investment funds for the implementation of measures are provided by Petrol and paid back through contractual period. We also take over technical and economic risks for the implementation and management of the project and guarantee savings in the consumption of energy products compared to previous situations.

IN ONE YEAR, WE HELPED OUR PARTNERS TO SAVE: 5,8 million euros, 1,8 million m3 of water, 40 million kWh of electrical energy and prevent the emission of 39,800 tons of CO2.
