As January the 26th, 2021 - When it comes to news about Petrinja since the end of 2020, there has been very little good. The devastating earthquake which struck Sisak-Moslavina County back in December saw Petrinja all but ruined entirely, but some good things are still happening despite the tragedy, thanks to Agro Simpa.
As Poslovni Dnevnik/Darko Bicak writes, despite the natural disaster which hit Petrinja at the end of a pandemic-dominated, economically terrible year, causing absolutely catastrophic consequences and the loss of multiple lives, life and entrepreneurship didn't stop, as has since been evidenced by the company Agro Simpa from Sisak, which announced that it will soon open a new laboratory for the analysis of honey and beeswax in he central Croatian town.
The new Agro Simpa honey laboratory will be located in the very centre of Petrinja, the part of the town that suffered the most terrible damage from the earthquake, and this company has pointed out that despite the problems they encounered, he sill managed to repair the material consequences of the disaster and are continue with the business goals they had previousl set.
As they explained, the new Petrinja laboratory will be equipped with some of the most modern equipment for honey analysis and will be able to perform all analyses according to the honey quality regulations, and they have also purchased a special device, an infrared spectrophotometer FTIR, which will be able to analyse beeswax and its level of purity.
They added that they hope that this is a small step towards the post-earthquake recovery of Petrinja and believe that other entrepreneurs and business owners will also start investing in earthquake-affected areas.
The company Agro Simpa is otherwise the largest chain of agricultural equipment stores in Sisak-Moslavina County, and their range includes the sale of tools and raw materials for agriculture, beekeeping, gardening and household duties.
They are also the distributors to some renowned animal feed factories such as Inberg, TSH Cakovec, Sano, seed corn BC Institute, KWS, Agricultural Institute Osijek.
