Postojna Caves Company Happy with 2004 Profit
Print this page
Postojna, 19 April

The company operating the Postojna Caves - one of the most famous Slovenian tourist sites - has reported a profit of SIT 167m (EUR 696,550) for last year on revenues of SIT 1.96bn (EUR 8.18m).

Postojnska jama turizem said it was happy with operations last year. According to general manager Matjaz Bercon, the fact that the company's profit fell 5.8% over 2003 is not worrying given that the company had to pay SIT 340m (EUR 1.42m) to the state for a license to operate the famous caves.
The 20-kilometre cave system was visited by around 502,000 people last year, mostly from Italy, Germany and Slovenia, although there was a large rise in the number of US, French and Spanish tourists.
Postojnska jama turizem is part of the Istranenz energy and tourism group.
