Starting point
WT Grupa was established as a positive example of merging two successful and stable companies: WELL d.o.o. Rijeka and Tumeo d.o.o. Rijeka. The idea of merging companies arose in response to the economic crisis in the 2008-2011 market, especially in the civil engineering market, with the aim of strengthening competitiveness in the domestic market and in the markets of BiH, Montenegro, Serbia and Macedonia.
Well d.o.o. was founded in 1991 and was originally engaged in trade and forwarding. The co-owners of the company were: Srđan Pokrajac and Nikola Musulin. The company started dealing with hydraulic hammers in 1995, which was its core business until 2011. Over the years, Well has developed a respectable spare parts warehouse for the most common models of hydraulic hammers, developed its own aftermarker support with a workshop. Over the years, the company has represented a number of foreign companies, primarily Italian companies: O.M.D. Italy (hammer parts), SAMEP Italy (hammer tools), PROMOVE Italy (hydraulic hammers), HAMMER Italy (hydraulic hammers). The main markets were Croatia, Montenegro, Macedonia
.
Tumeo d.o.o. was founded in 2007. The owner of the company was Vanja Sindičić. The company was engaged in the sale and service of hydraulic hammers and hydraulic hammer parts, mostly Atlas Copco / Krupp original spare parts. The company also represented O.M.D. Italy (hammer parts), CORIMAG Italy (hammer tools), INDECO Italy (hydraulic hammers), ERKAT Germany (hydraulic rotary drum cutters), MB Crusher Italy (hydraulic crushing buckets). In 2011 and 2012, the company also engaged in freight forwarding.

By associating co-owners through the WT grupa, much better systematization of customers and suppliers has been enabled, unit operating costs have been reduced, especially through the costs of purchasing goods, dependent costs of import and storage and further distribution of goods to end customers.
Furthermore, each of the co-owners in his professional development positioned himself in one segment of the market in which he was accepted and recognized. If we look at market segmentation through types of hydraulic hammers, the merger has achieved a presence in most parts of the market, ie in several market segments, thus achieving the possibility of offering goods and services for almost all types / models of hydraulic hammers and parts. Increasing market share while reducing unit operating costs and taking a leading role in several market segments was the basic vision when founding the WT Grupa, which was largely achieved within the first and especially the second year of operation.
