“The lack of adequate infrastructure affects not only the south-eastern part of the country but here it should be emphasized that the Polog region is also affected by the lack of adequate infrastructure. These regions of this part of the country also have a low level of exports, where due to the lack of customs terminals and adequate infrastructure, companies have additional costs for transport and export of goods.

Polog region in the total value of the country’s export participates with 2.3% while in import with only 3%. Of course, the whole country suffers from this corridor, because Albania is a cheaper alternative with its port in Durrës, where compared to the port of Thessaloniki it is closer and more suitable for our businesses “, declared Durim Zekiri, from ECNWM.
