Jagros, a family-owned retail and restaurant company, plans to employ at least 110 workers in a new logistics centre and shopping premises in Hoče. The distribution centre will supply their shops with commodities such as food, home appliances, and textiles. The investment will be carried out in two phases: the store will be built first and then the logistics centre. Business expansion will require 30 new employees in sales and between 80 and 100 in logistics.
