About PePeKo

PePeKo was established as a non-profit entity in 2014 and legally registered as an association in 2015.

The creation of PePeKo arose from the need of local businesses to join associations that guarantee and protect their interests. PePeKo is an organization that plays a significant role in the country’s economy and serves as a bridge for over 20,000 farmers engaged in cultivating fruits and vegetables and consumers, both within and outside the country. Our association aims to strengthen and contribute to the development of the fruit and vegetable processing sector in Kosovo through the implementation of various projects.

Since 2015, PePeKo has been fully operational and currently has around 30 members, four of whom are founders.
