Taking into account needs of consumers, the company held a great work on reconstruction of production, modernization of plant and equipment and work on introduction of the modern methods of production that had contributed to growth in production. Today we produce 38 types of salads, 30 positions of bakery food, 64 types of ready-made meals, 16 types of cakes and pastry, 9 types of cookies and 12 types of bread.
