Wholesale charcoal for Serbia

Road freight is the standard way to Serbia. A full 13.6 m truck takes about 33 Euro pallets and runs from Skopje through the Tabanovce–Preševo crossing on Corridor X, then north on the E75 towards Niš, Belgrade and Novi Sad. Smaller lots travel as groupage, with your pallets sharing a trailer, which is a practical way to start with one or a few pallets before moving to full loads.

Transit is a few days by road and is confirmed in the quotation together with the loading date. Incoterms are agreed per order, from EXW Skopje to delivered at your warehouse. Serbia is also our transit corridor for onward deliveries to Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia and Hungary, so combined loads can be discussed.

Ask your customs representative to confirm the classification, origin documents and import requirements for the actual goods and destination. Dispatch from Skopje does not, by itself, prove North Macedonian origin or establish a preferential duty rate.

Before ordering, agree the invoice, packing list, transport document and any additional product, traceability or safety documents required for your shipment. The broker and carrier should confirm clearance or transit arrangements and responsibilities before loading.

Serbia is a grill country. Ćevapi cooked over ćumur are everyday food, and the roštilj season stretches from spring well into autumn. Our buyers there fall into three groups: grill houses and kafane that burn charcoal every day, restaurant suppliers and distributors who deliver to them, and retail chains that stock drveni ugalj for home use.

Restaurants with long service hours usually ask for Marabu, which burns for up to around 7 hours, indicative and varying by lot. Classic ćevapi grills tend to prefer oak or beech lump charcoal. Retail chains take charcoal briquettes in 2 to 10 kg bags, with Serbian-language labels and private-label bags available on request. The range is subject to availability and includes acacia among other types.

Send the product type, the quantity in bags, pallets or trucks, the bag size, the delivery address in Serbia, the Incoterm you prefer, your target date and any private-label requirement. Virovo Promet then confirms in writing what is available, the net load per pallet or truck, the packaging and labelling, the documents we can issue for that lot and the commercial terms.

Virovo Promet is a family-owned charcoal wholesaler in Skopje, North Macedonia, founded in 1990, exporting full-container loads of hardwood charcoal across Europe and beyond. Skopje is a short drive from the Serbian border, so you are welcome to visit the office and warehouse, Monday to Saturday 08:00 to 16:00, or to ask for a video call.
