History edit
The company was founded by two engineers in 1919, formally registered on January 24, 1921 under the name of 'Elektra'. It became a subsidiary of Siemens shortly after that same year. Following World War II it was nationalised and renamed to Rade Končar, a communist resistance fighter, finally shortened to Končar in 1991.[8] Notable milestones for the company include the production and delivery of the first electric motor using a varnished wire in 1930, and in 1948 it produced its first generator.
Since then it produced over 400 thousand transformers, 700 generators and delivered around 200 units of rolling stock.[9]

З асортиментом виробів від праски до локомотива і мега-проектами в ста країнах. «Кончар» був справді вітчизняним (і не тільки) промисловим гігантом.
