| Summary: | After World War I, there were smaller textile companies operating in the territory of the Zemun municipality, which barely exceeded the framework of craft production. Various privileges that the municipality granted to industrialists, along with the introduction of protective tariff s in 1925, significantly contributed to the development of the textile industry, which would become the most important industrial branch in the interwar period. The Devald family was one of the more well-known families in Zemun and had a tradition of textile production. Brothers Anton and Nikola Devald founded the company "Brać a Devald" in 1918, later continuing with independent operations. The work presents data related to the establishment of the "Drina" knitting factory, owned by Anton Devald, and the "Dunav" knitting factory, owned by Nikola Devald, and their operations during the interwar period. |
