Our welders-fitters prefer to do long shifts with heavy after hour work. They are there for one single reason: to work for you.

Jugoslavia and the Balkans were once a place where millions of hard working and highly skilled men worked 12 – 16 hour shifts in huge factories known troughout the world for their first class products and services. Metalurgic factories like Metalna (Slovenia), TAM (Slovenia), Zastava (Serbia), Litostroj (Slovenia), Bor (Serbia), Zeljezara Zenica (Bosnia) and many others were once pride of the nation, giving employment to hundreds of thousands of men. In cities near the big factories it was customary that everybody in the family (grandfather, father and son) were all skilled welders-fitters.

Like Spartans were the best warriors in 5th century BC because they were raised to be soldiers, people from the Balkans have been the best welders in the last few decades because they were raised into hard working men by fathers who worked in welding factories all their lives.

Since 1990’s Jugoslavia and the Balkans have been in crysis because of the civil wars and economic blocades which left hundreds of thousands of highly skilled welders unemployed. Because the big factories are now gone and the nation is in poverty, welders from the Balkans are trying to find work in more developed countries.

We are assembling highly skilled teams of certified welders-fitters on request and shipping them out where ever they are needed. If your business needs workers, please contact us and let us know the details. We will work out a solution and get back to you promptly. We will provide work permits, visas, temporary home and transportation for the welders while you provide their salary.

We take care of everything (visas, work permits, housing, food and transportation for the workers). You may lease the workers directly from us for as long as you need them (weeks, months, years).
