New projects in import substitution of dairy products appear in Belarus

1 февраля 2022

Last year, the export of Belarusian food exceeded $6 billion. According to the Ministry of Agriculture and Food, we sold our products to 106 countries. The trade potential is constantly enhanced by the participation of domestic producers in major international exhibitions. For example, from February 13 to 17 milk processors, including Slutsk cheese factory, will present their new products in Dubai.

More and more agro-industrial enterprises present their know-how in import substitution. For example, Vileika will become a pilot site in Belarus, where Camembert cheese will be produced. A new investment project on import substitution is implemented by "First Dairy" holding with a production site in Vileika. 

The demand for Belarusian dairy products in China has increased. According to experts' forecasts, in the next few years the export of our products to China will reach one billion dollars.
