28 августа 2020
The President is on a working trip to the Vitebsk Region today. A high priority is given to Orsha District. Alexander Lukashenko visited a cheese-making plant. This is one of the production sites of the Belarusian dairy giant Savushkin Product. The Head of State was informed about the state and prospects of the enterprise, the implementation of a project to create a modernized milk processing plant. It was impossible to produce a high-quality and competitive product on outdated equipment. The total investment will exceed 45 million euros. A little more than 40 million euros has already been invested.

Modern production is gradually increasing its capacity, which means that it needs both additional staff and raw materials. The demand for raw materials at this site alone will grow to 600 tons per day by the end of the third stage of modernization in the next summer. There is one more plant in Orsha of processed cheese. It has significant debts. Alexander Lukashenko instructed to study in detail the issue of the future of the enterprise by the end of the year. The President reminded once again: people and their salaries should be put in the first place.

Modern workshops and laboratories were established at the Orsha enterprise, following the principle: each new site must be better than the previous one. The enterprise is called an exemplary dairy production plant with equipment from world suppliers, maximum automation, and the latest technologies in the field of processing and production of food products. The product line will be expanded here.
