TIRANA, July 3 – Prime Minister Sali Berisha met Tuesday with managers of two well-known international companies, Heineken and McDonald’s, which had come to Albania to look for possible investment opportunities.

They both expressed interest in operating throughout Albania, as opposed to only in Tirana.

Berisha assured them of the assistance they would receive if they invest in Albania, such as reducing bureaucracy to make their operating in the country less troublesome.

Berisha also met Tuesday with COLACER company managers who had come to propose a possible $200 million project for a cement factory in Lezha.
