The fire that engulfed the “Comodita” company in Gjakova is a serious blow to Kosovo’s manufacturing industry and the country’s economy. The event directly affects thousands of workers and their families, the city of Gjakova and the entire economic chain that depends on this strategic enterprise.
"Comodita" represents a pillar of local production and is a Kosovar success story, built with work and sacrifice over the years. Any damage to this company reflects as a loss for the Kosovo economy and local production.
The Kosovo Business League expresses full solidarity with the owner, Shkëlqim Devolli, the management and employees of “Comodita”. It also demands an immediate response from the Government of Kosovo, responsible institutions and local authorities, through institutional, financial and administrative support, with the aim of the company’s speedy recovery and job preservation.
In such situations, the state must stand firmly by local producers. Protecting industry is simultaneously protecting workers, families, and the national economy.
The Kosovo Business League expresses the hope that the damages will be as minimal as possible and that "Comodita" will recover quickly and stronger than before, guaranteeing the continuity of local production.
