Dear Mayor Mehanović,

I would like to thank you for the invitation to the opening ceremony of the 53rd International Agriculture and Food Industry Fair – the “Plum Fair” – to be held on 13 August 2026, in Gradačac.

I extend my warm congratulations to you and all the participants on the occasion of the Fair, along with my sincere wishes for the event to unfold in an atmosphere of dignity, a spirit of togetherness and pride, and to provide new impetus for the development of the agriculture and food industries.

I am confident that this fair—which brings together producers, businesspeople, and friends of agriculture in a shared commitment to tradition, hard work, and success—will once again serve as a powerful driver of economic progress and a meeting place that connects people, ideas, and visions.
