Croatia’s Defence Sector Showcases at Enforce Tac in Germany
Twenty-six Croatian defence-industry firms are presenting products and technologies at the Enforce Tac security and defence trade fair in Nuremberg, aimed at expanding export markets and industrial partnerships.
The Croatian defence sector is currently exhibiting at the Enforce Tac trade fair in Nuremberg, Germany, where 26 domestic companies present their equipment and systems alongside more than 1,000 exhibitors from over 50 countries. The event runs from February 23 to 25 and focuses on security, law enforcement, and defence industry stakeholders.
A joint national stand brings Croatian firms together under a coordinated effort by the Ministry of Defence, Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development, the state-owned export agency Agencija Alan, and the Croatian Chamber of Economy. This collective presence aims to strengthen visibility, stimulate export growth, and attract new partnerships in European and global markets.
Established defence manufacturers are represented at the stand, including producers of protective equipment, small arms and unmanned aerial systems. In addition, a broad contingent of companies with dual-use goods for both military and civilian markets is present, reflecting diversification within the Croatian industrial base.
Officials emphasise that participation in Enforce Tac aligns with national efforts to integrate Croatian suppliers into international supply chains and address strategic priorities such as capacity expansion, product innovation and digitalisation. Representatives note that trade fairs provide direct engagement with institutional buyers, including defence ministries and security services.
Croatian exhibitors report early business dialogues at the event, including discussions between domestic textile-sector producers and foreign defence representatives. This underscores the potential for expanding cooperation across NATO and EU markets.
The companies exhibiting under the Croatian national stand are Galko, Croshield, Šestan-Busch, Orqa, HS Produkt, Galeb, Inkop, Elektroda Zagreb, Jacquard, Kap-Ko, Odjeća, Borovo, DIV Grupa (BSO), Đuro Đaković Specijalna Vozila, Splendor Tekstil, RIZ PE, Jelen Professional, Odašiljači i veze, Hemco, Čateks, Kroko Proizvodnja i razvoj, DOK-ING, Hidraulika Kurelja, Spar-Tac, Shadow Nautics and Tril Strong.
