Summary/Abstract: One would say that Europlast is typical family business. Company was established in 1998 In small town of Donji Miholjac (Croatia) by Predrag who showed remarkable sense for running a company. He was also very successful in involving his son Bojan into the business from young age. Bojan always wanted to join the company. He always had new ideas how to improve the business, but Predrag had Bojan’s best interest in mind and wanted him to get university education before joining the business. Gradually company grew and had overcome all of typical family business problems. Finally, Bojan decided to join the family business in 2017 right after graduating from the Faculty of Economics and Business at the University of Osijek. Bojan firmly believed that he could bring new ideas to the business and help further develop it. He had very good skills in communicating with foreign business partners, and good market research skills, so Predrag thought Bojn could do a valuable work in helping company further internationalize.
