Vjesnik's printing house has been struggling with unfavourable market trends for years, some of the problems that led to a drop in revenue and such a large loss are: the interruption of printing of most popular daily newspaper Jutarnji list, the shortage of paper as a basic raw material, and the failure and inability to repair the rotation.
