We continue to invest in the development of new products, in our own production base and in expansion of the system of connected companies. We have accomplished a sustained growth and development in all business areas and we continue to expand the scope of operations in terms of market, assortment and volume of goods, which directly implies an increase in the number of work force and our total turnover.
  Organisational Structure of SCO Group 


With almost two decades of experience in the sugar business, we rank among the largest suppliers in the Western Balkans. Having built a sugar refinery in Brčko, Bosnia-Herzegovina, we are able to meet the needs of both the national and a large portion of the regional market with sugar from our own production. In the last several years we have also developed the trading and distribution of sugar in the world market, with a focus on the Mediterranean and Near-eastern countries.

With our edible oil factory and the brand of the same name "Bimal" we have assumed a leading position in the market of Bosnia- Herzegovina and we supply the food industry in the region and the most relevant European trade chains. We have plans for further investments in the edible oil sector some of which are already underway. In the area of raw coffee production, we have managed to secure for ourselves a significant portion of our traditional markets in a fairly short time; moreover, our volume and assortment of products continues to grow. 

Within our group we employ a number of highly qualified personnel bonded by the same dynamics, focus on business and willingness to work and achieve success. We see our greatest asset in our associates who find motivation in the very idea that they make a part of a group to whose success and development they contribute with their everyday work and effort. We continue to invest in the growth and development of our human resources. With the agro-industrial complex in Brčko and three production systems we constitute a significant and, most importantly, dependable employer in the region as we provide jobs for several hundreds of employees.

In our strife for progress and sustained growth we always bear in mind our associates' and partners' interests. We consider success in business and progress in all areas to be the primary goal of our business operations.

It is our goal to assume the leading position in the field of trade, production and distribution of sugar, oil and coffee in the markets where we traditionally operate as well as to continue to expand our business operations in the international markets.
