Besides, the installation of new mozzarella production lines will begin in autumn. Plans have been made to launch them in January 2021.
When the third stage of modernization is completed in June 2021, the daily demand for raw materials at the Orsha factory will increase to 600 tonnes. Therefore, the main objectives of the enterprise are to establish closer ties with producers of raw materials in Orsha District and Dibrovno District, Vitebsk Oblast, and to raise the quality and quantity of milk available for processing.
