Reasons for investment in Serbia Danube grain storage and logistics development: Growth of export quantities from year to year. NON GMO grains and oilseeds wanted in the world. Need for construction of new grain terminals. Possibility of transport from the Black Sea to the North Sea due to Pan-European corridor VII .
