The purpose of the final seminar work entitled Production chain of Steklarna Hrastnik is to study the comodity chain formed by Steklarna Hrastnik and its integration into the global production chain of glass products. The beginnings of Steklarna Hrastnik date back to 1860, when Edvard J. Heider built a factory in Hrastnik with ten stoves for making glass. This is the factory that employs the most people in Hrastnik, so the existence of this company is very important for the place itself. The company's production programs are constantly changing, which is why the production chain is also changing. They are currently sourcing major raw materials from 5 different countries. In 2019, they manufactured over 161 million products, which they successfully distributed in Slovenia and around the world. Steklarna Hrastnik also cooperates with large companies such as Heineken, Hennessy, Bacardi and many others.
