RWE, a German electricity and gas supplier with 60.000 employees, the turnover of 50 billion Euro and 24 millions of customers in 12 countries, enters the Slovenian market after its recent expansion in Croatia. RWE has already a majority market share in many Eastern European countries. In the first phase, RWE will provide households with electricity and LED light bulbs; later on the offer will be extended also to enterprises and industry. In the first year, the company plans to reach 10.000 households. In a five year period, it aims at reaching 10 per cent market share in Slovenia. The company will employ 150 employees, such as door to door agents and employees in call centres and support services.
