History

Trayal Corporation was founded in 1889 in Kruševac as a "Gunpowder Works".[4]

2006–present

In November 2006, the Government of Serbia sold 76.9% of shares of the company to the Bulgarian Brikel EAD (owned by the businessman Hristo Kovachki) for a sum of 12.1 million euros, with the obligation to invest 25.1 million euros.[5] At the time, Trayal Corporation had 3,500 employees in five divisions.[6] However, over the years, most of the production was significantly reduced due to poor management.

In December 2011, the American tire manufacturing company Cooper Tire & Rubber Company took automobile tire facilities of Trayal for a sum of 13 million euros.[7][8] The newly established company which has disintegrated from the Trayal Corporation, was named "Cooper Tire & Rubber Company Serbia" d.o.o.[8]

In 2013, the Government of Serbia took over the company's remaining assets, as it accumulated 130 million euros of debt and contract with the Bulgarian company was cancelled.[6] In 2017, Trayal Corporation developed remotely-controlled anti-hail protection system used in agriculture.[9]

As of 2018, "Trayal Corporation" is the largest working collective in the city of Kruševac, with exports to the foreign markets.[4]
