Kašetica magazine for PGŽ

This is the first English language edition of the attractive Pegeželjac magazine for Primorje-Gorski Kotar County. Inside you can find a lot of useful and interesting information about local products, the specialities of Primorje-Gorski Kotar County and the brand Kašetica – or little wooden crate, which brings together more than 150 producers of indigenous products.

It features the county’s producers of local cheeses, wines, olive oils, prosciutto, fruit and many more delicious produce. Apart from being a brand of PGŽ Kašetica is also a exhibition and sales centre set in a renovated typical littoral house in the old town of Rijeka and inside which numerous events, promotions, tastings, presentations, exhibitions, training and workshops are organised. It is a charming shop of local, healthy produce from around the county by small family farms and craftsmen. Kašetica means “little crate” and visitors can fill up their own bespoke crate with the tasty goodies which is then wrapped for delivery or take away – the perfect gift!

I am proud to have been the translator for such as a green, eco-friendly venture that supports local farms, manufacturers and craftsmen.
