COMPANY
HTP Korčula is located on the island of Korčula in the south of Croatia, in near proximity to Dubrovnik, and is well connected
to the mainland with frequent ferry lines to Orebić (on Pelješac peninsula) and City of Split (direct connection to highway A1
Split-Zagreb and to International Airport Split). Along with Dubrovnik City, Korčula has a great potential for the development
of high-end tourism in the Dubrovnik-Neretva County.
The Company represents an excellent investment opportunity as it owns a majority of accommodation capacities on the
island. With a wide range of hospitality facilities (four hotels and a tourist resort) ranging from 2 to 4 stars the Company has
a possibility to create a diverse tourist offer. All facilities have excellent waterfront locations. Most hotels were built between
1960 and 1970, and up to present have been partly renovated. During 2006 and 2007 the significant amount of 6.7 mil EUR
has been invested into hotel Marko Polo in order to achieve the four star category.
With 89% of overnight stays, tourists from abroad, mostly from Central and Eastern Europe (Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia,
Slovenia and Bosnia and Herzegovina), are dominant guests.
Currently the Company is undergoing a restructuring process which envisages the potential sale of some facilities.

Average gross salary: 994 EUR
Unemployment rate: 18.8%
Average gross salary in the sector (tourism): 984 EUR
A Dubrovnik-Neretva Country comprises 5 cities and 17 municipalities. The County includes smaller islands covered in thick
Mediterranean vegetation and forests, smaller settlements and agricultural lands (olive groves and vineyards).
The main characteristic of the County’s economy is the predominance of tertiary services with tourism and hospitality industries and maritime shipping as main activities. The region also has significant agricultural potentials in the area of the Neretva
River Delta Valley and in the Peninsula Pelješac known for the active production of high quality wines.
The County is very well connected with an international airport Dubrovnik, close proximity to the modern A1 highway SplitZagreb, the deep sea port of Dubrovnik suitable for cruisers as well as an important cargo port Ploče (gateway of the future
Pan-European transportation corridor Vc).
Dubrovnik’s famous medieval old town (listed on UNESCO’s world heritage list since 1979) along with the island Korčula has
positioned Dubrovnik and the County as a high-end European and global tourist destination (New York Times shortlisted
Dubrovnik among 45 places to visit in 2012).
Tourism is constantly developing as a strategic industry for the County, through investments in new and existing hotels,
sports and infrastructure capacities (14 five star hotels and 17 four star hotels, two golf resorts planned within 35 km, a new
investment in ACI Marina Slano).
The potential for high-end tourism has already been identified by international hotel chains (Hilton, Radisson Blue, Rixos, Uzel
Holding, Adriatic Luxury Hotels and Luksic Group) present in Dubrovnik.
The educational infrastructure relevant to the sector includes high schools for hospitality and catering and two universities with
excellent programs related to tourism (ACMT-RIT New York and Dubrovnik University).
