Geographically the new complex will be located in the close proximity to the federal highway M-4 "Don". At the first stage of development the company will focus on products delivery to Moscow and other major cities of Central Russia.
"We intend to restore industrial duck meat production in Russia. Within a year and a half we plan to increase the range of products and supply both duck and turkey meat to the federal retail chains. With the successful implementation of the project we can significantly reduce the share of imported frozen products into the Russian market and offer our consumers a high quality chilled products, "- says “Eurodon” CEO Vadim Vaneev.
The future complex will include a hatchery, parent flock facilities to ensure settable eggs production, barns for commercial flocks rearing, feed mill plant with elevator, meat processing plant, bedding material plant and other industrial facilities.
"We’ve been preparing for this project launching for several years. The uniqueness of the future complex is that we have studied the experience of the world's leading producers of duck meat and adapted it to Russian conditions ", - stressed Vadim Vaneev.
The future complex will initially be designed to comply with the strict sanitary and biosecurity standards. The closed-cycle technology with full automation of production processes will be applied.
