“Frankly, last year we grew at the expense of dairy products. This year we have made a special emphasis on meat. It was not for nothing that they brought four meat-packing plants. And our Belarusian sausages, canned food, ready-made meat products, and just beef and pork, which we brought, and there treated our friends, colleagues, residents of Vladivostok, it really came to taste. And we even made a cut, went shopping, looked at what was on sale. Yes, the shelves are not empty, they are full, but, frankly, there is not enough of such natural products as we produce “, – believes Bogdanov.
According to him, there are a lot of applications for products, but at the enterprises there can be no sharp increase in the volume of supplies.
“There is simply not enough production. We have already sold products for a month in advance at many enterprises in the dairy and meat industries – pre-orders. We already have a prepayment in advance so that only … The client is interested in taking it. And today we are faced with the task of increasing the volume of production of raw materials. Accordingly, we will be able to increase both production volumes and deliveries of finished products “, – he said.
