The Manufacturer: Industrialimpeks (also spelled Industrialimpex) was a state-controlled, foreign trade enterprise established by the socialist government of Albania. Its specific role was managing the production and export of high-quality national commodities—including traditional wood crafts, textiles, and fine artistic works—to the global market.
The Era: Because this state-monopolized enterprise operated heavily during the late communist period (primarily from its reorganization in 1983 through the early 1990s), your box can be confidently dated to this specific timeframe.
