The planned commissioning period is the second quarter of 2020. Investments in the project is 1.1 billion rubles", - said the representative of "EkoNiva".
In addition, it is planned to invest 21 billion rubles in the cheese factory in Maslyanino in Novosibirsk region, with a processing capacity of 1150 tons of milk per day. 19 billion rubles is the loan of the Rosselkhozbank, as previously reported by The DairyNews.

- “EkoNiva” is one of the largest producers of raw milk in Russia, according to data for 2017, 2.3% of raw milk in Russia is produced by this company. But today "EkoNiva" is involved in processing, and we see the positive moment in it - other processing companies, understanding that "EkoNiva" will reduce deliveries of milk, begin to develop own raw material base. This develops the raw milk market in Russia, - said Mikhail Mishchenko, Director of the Dairy Intelligence Agency (DIA).
