Croatian industrial and export development strategy

Overview

Croatia is focusing on industrial modernization and export growth through strategic investments and state-supported financing. At a recent HBOR conference, officials noted that Croatian goods exports have grown by nearly 150 percent since 2016, driven by investments in technology and innovation.\n\nTo sustain this momentum, the government introduced the National Plan for the Development of the Republic of Croatia's Industry for 2027–2034. This strategy aims to increase the manufacturing sector's share of GDP by prioritizing high-value products, decarbonization, and productivity. A key component involves directing funds toward defense, security, and high-technology sectors, with the Croatian Development Bank (HBOR) receiving 133 million euros to support these strategic industries.
