Marketing Information Brochure: A Prefeasibility Study for Creating a “The Sport Planet” Complex in Korça a Public Private Partnership project

Albania is located in the southeastern part of Europe bordered by two European Union member
countries, Italy and Greece, respectively on the western and southeastern borders as well as
Macedonia on the eastern border and Kosovo and Montenegro on the north and northeastern
border. With an area of 28,000 km2 and a coast line from south to north, Albania, which benefits from the continuous and ambitious economic reforms as well as social and political stability, today aims at becoming a member of the European Union and NATO.
Albania is currently lacking a complex sports centre which can offer sport activities and
comprehensive physiotherapeutic services. This situation is due in part to the fact that during the
last 15 years sports and culture has not been a priority for government policy makers. Fortunately, the city of Korça has inherited a sports complex, the only one in the country. The complex was was constructed from 1975 to 1980, but currently it is non-functional and unusable.
