Zvečevo

The company Stock Cognac Medicinal was founded 20 October 1921 in Požega, producing strong alcoholic drinks. In 1936 the company also started producing chocolate and candy products. The chocolate factory was rented to Nestlé from 1936 to 1946. In 1951 the company changed its name to Zvečevo d.d. Požega. In the 1960s, all efforts were aimed towards production of cocoa products, strong alcoholic drinks and milk powder, as the unprofitable and outdated production of fruit juices and flour was abandoned. A cooperation with Nestlé was established in 1970 that lasted until 1995.
