HERCEGOVAČKA KUĆA OTVORENA U BEOGRADU

Gradonačelnici Trebinja i Beograda Mirko Ćurić i Aleksandar Šapić danas su svečano otvorili "Hercegovačku kuću" u blizini Trga Slavija, u ulici Makenzijeva 44. "Hercegovačka kuća" u Beogradu je prva te vrste van Republike Srpske i u njoj će svoje proizvode za početak plasirati 20-tak renomiranih proizvođača sa područja Trebinja i Hercegovine.

Gradonačelnik Trebinja Ćurić je rekao da se otvaranjem "Hercegovačke kuće" na simboličan način povezuju Republika Srpska i Srbija, te da će od danas građani srpske prijestonice imati mogućnost da u njoj kupe ono najbolje što dolazi iz Hercegovine, autohtono, organsko i prirodno. Ćurić se posebno zahvalio predsedniku Srbije Aleksandru Vučiću što je svesredno podržao projekat "Hercegovačka kuća" i lično se uključio u obezbeđivanje neophodnih uslova za otvaranje objekta u Beogradu, kao i gradonačelniku Aleksandru Šapiću i Udruženju Trebinjaca "Jovan Dučić".

Gradonačelnik Beograda Aleksandar Šapić izrazio je želju da se po istom principu, kao Herecgovačke kuće, počnu da otvaraju i srpske kuće po svetu, gde bi se, tamo gde postoji naša dijaspora, nudili autentični proizvodi našeg podneblja. Šapić je istakao da otvaranje Hercegovačke kuće, u kojoj će Beograđani moći da kupe autentične proizvode tog podneblja ima i dublje značenje. “Mi se, kao pripadnici srpskog naroda trudimo da, gde god se nalazili, a naročito u okruženju, vodimo računa jedni o drugima. Više puta sam govorio da će Beograd, dok sam ja gradonačelnik uvek biti otvoren i na usluzi svom našem narodu bez obzira gde živi. Beograd nije samo glavni grad Srbije već srpska prestonica i glavni grad svih Srba u regionu. Mi nikoga ne mrzimo i želimo dobre odnose sa svima, ali moramo da vodimo računa i o srpskom narodu, Hercegovcima, Kordunašima, Banijcima, Srbima iz Crne Gore i svim drugim Srbima iz regiona”, rekao je Šapić.

Direktor Agrarnog fonda Trebinja Veselin Dutina je rekao da ovo nije samo otvaranje prodajnog objekta nego učvršćivanje veza Republike Srbije i Republike Srpske.  “Kada smo 2017. godine u Trebinju otvorili prvu Hercegovačku kuću imali smo ideju da okupimo male poljoprivredne proizvođače koji bi organizovano plasirali svoje proizvode. U početku je bilo teško, ali smo se potrudili da taj projekat bude dugoročan. U početku ih je bilo 20 proizvođača sa stotinak proizvoda, danas imamo tri maloprodajna objekta u Republici Srpskoj. U ovoj Hercegovačkoj kući će u početku biti proizvodi dvadesetak proizvođača, što će se vremenom povećavati”, rekao je Dutina
