Industry Industrial production in Slovenia began on a downward trend during the late eighties as the economy of former SFRY faltered (Table 24). The decline continued until the middle of 1993 when a recovery, initiated by rising domestic demand, began. However, industrial production, which had fallen by over 13 percent in 1992, continued to contract in 1993, declining by 3 percent. This decline was broad-based with all three major branches of industrial activity experiencing a contraction: manufacturing output fell by 2 percent, electricity, gas and water supply by 3 percent, and construction activity by 4 percent. The turnaround in 1994 was decisive and strong. Real growth in these three branches was 7 percent, 6 1/2 percent and 7 1/2 percent, respectively, propelling total industrial output growth to 6 1/2 percent.The successful reorientation to the European markets, strong demand in partner countries and recovery in domestic investment contributed to the industrial expansion. The commodity composition of industrial growth reflected these factors. While the growth in final goods had already turned positive in 1993, the growth rate was, however, less than 1 percent, as a large share of private consumption demand was satisfied by imports. The recovery in capital and intermediate goods production came only in 1994 with growth rates of 13 1/2 and 8 3/4 percent, respectively.
b. ServicesThe service sector was the first to register a positive growth rate, expanding by 4 percent in 1993. The growth moderated to 3 1/2 in 1994. The share of services in value added increased from 54 percent in 1992 to 56 percent in 1994. Rapid growth in the public sector in 1992 and 1993 was a contributing factor to this expansion of the service sector. The private sector is also developing rapidly and represented 88 percent of the total number of firms, 16 percent of total employment (up from 2 percent in 1990) and 24 percent of total revenues in 1994 (Tables 30-32).Tourism, as measured by the number of nights spent by tourists, fell by almost half between 1989 and 1991, reflecting the uncertain political and security situation (Table 26). As the security environment in the region improved, tourism recovered; overnight stays by to...
