Enterprises of the Krasnoyarsk Territory increased the export of dairy products

Since the beginning of the year, enterprises of the Krasnoyarsk Territory have sent abroad 111 tons of dairy products worth $185,000.

These are the highest figures in the last six years. Regional enterprises plan to further increase their presence in foreign markets within the framework of the regional project "Export of agricultural products" of the national project "International cooperation and export".

Thus, this year the Filimonovsky Dairy Plant for the first time delivered 60 tons of skimmed MILK powder to Kazakhstan, where the products are in high demand. Next year, the company plans to increase the EXPORT of skimmed milk powder to 100 tons. In addition, the company is negotiating with Uzbek colleagues on the sale of canned milk.

Krasnoyarsk plant "Milko" JSC "Danone Russia" for the first time this year sent 40 tons of ultra-pasteurized milk to CHINA . According to Yulia Legkoya, DIRECTOR of government relations in the region, these are trial deliveries, which are necessary to see further prospects.

“ China has several significant requirements. To gain a foothold in the Chinese market, you need to take them into account. In particular, the shelf life of the product must be at least one year. There is a request for a small package - 250 milliliters. The Chinese drink milk on the go, teach children to do so. In general, we have something to work on. And these are not only production, but logistical tasks, pricing issues,” said Yulia Legkaya.
Yoghurts, cream, butter, cheeses of various types and cottage cheese were also shipped from the region to Kazakhstan, South Ossetia and Belarus.

“Increasing production, assortment and supplies abroad of products of the agro-industrial complex of the region is the main task of the regional project “Export of agricultural products”. We are successfully solving it. Every year, the region ships a significant amount of grain and oilseeds outside the region and to the international market. In deliveries from the region abroad, they occupy the maximum share. A positive trend this year is the expansion of the range of exported products. These are not only dairy products, but also cereals, pork,” said Leonid Shorokhov, Deputy Chairman of the Regional Government – ​​Minister of Agriculture and Trade.

Since the beginning of the year, 101 thousand tons of agricultural products have been sent from the region abroad. In value terms, the volume of exports amounted to $27 million.
