FILIPI CO PRESENTATION.
Filipi CO Lac was established on July 25, 1991 by Mr. Filip Gjoka. In the first
beginning the enterprise was called “DEBAMK. FIRMA GJOKA LAC”. This name
held until December 18 of 1996, day in which the company took the name is
known today: Filip CO LAC Medical Plants, result of decision of the founders of
this firm and the Court of Tirana.
After studying the internal market in the country of medicinal plants and essences
in December of 1991, the first contracts related was with Agro-Export, state
enterprise, the only one who had the right to trade and export in this field.
On 11 January 1992 the company started collecting, gathering and trading of
sage and savory, an activity that was developed for nearly a year by delivering the
product in Plantex stores, Durres.
The founder of this company with his brothers started the analyses of the
feasibility of the internal market and external, result of which was the fact that
over 85% of medical sage plant was destined for consumption in the U.S. market
and at this time the company immediately began efforts to conclude contracts
export to America.
In June of 1993 the company signed contracts with a very serious companies like
AA SAYIA USA and Daniel Crabbe, and has a successful collaboration in the past
17 years.
In this period the company started exports in many countries as USA, Croatia,
Germany, Macedonia, etc.. The company became a promoter of reducing
unemployment in the area of Lac and in some rural areas of Albania. One year
after starting to export to the U.S. and Europe in lac ( the location of the
company) and Tirana ( location of the offices ) were employed over 450 workers
in the selection of medicinal plants, and their preparation and exportation, about
265 suppliers across the country and a total of 1700 employees today. Filipi CO
Lac and Mr. Filip Gjoka besides the growth strategy, in its policies, has been and
remains, contributing to the employment of hundreds of people, especially in
groups with more needs.
“Filipi Co”, was the first subject that exported from Albania to America, after
more than 60 years of interruption of relations. So, the year 1993 would be the
restart of good trading relations with America after a long break, at the same
time reflecting the great contribution that Filipi Co has made in this aspect.
After the problem created by the “pyramid schemes” in our country in 1996,
which damaged the legal business, even our company was directly affected because
many firms that bankrupted was known by this name, so our collaborators
thought that Filipi Co was having financial problems.
Many people confuse the name of “DEBAMK PRIVATE ENTERPRISE with “Filipi
Co” of today so the firm was forced to change the name. In January of 1997 the
firm was named after founder Filipi CO Medicinal Plants, the name is known
today.
In early 1997, the company bought 5000 square meters of land and an existing
stock. Was the right time after nearly 6 years of activity to create the right
conditions and infrastructure to involve with faster steps and rhythms.
