АGROHOLDING

The foreground area of activity of the RUBEG Group of Companies is the creation of its own agroholding.

Within the framework of the National project «Agroindustrial Complex Development» the Group develops the production of poultry meat on the basis of five poultry farms in Novgorod and Pskov regions. By developing the poultry complex, the Group strives to build the closed integrated system, including the creation of its own feeds resources. Hence, the investments into crops production became a logical step in the agroholding development.
We started to invest into the national agriculture in 2005. In 2005-2008, the poultry farms acquired by the Group were modernized, with capital repairs of existing premises, building of new ones, installation of new European equipment, and replacement of engineering and technical networks. Two egg-producing poultry farms were redesigned into second stage reproducing farms that produce enough incubation eggs for our own needs. First broilers were produced in April, 2008. Total capacity of the farms equals today 36.5 thousand tons of poultry meat and giblets per year. By 2015, the volume of production will amount to 120-150 thousand tons per year.
Within the period 2005-2009, the volume of own and leveraged investments into this project amounted to RUR 3.7 billion. The North-West Bank of Sberbank of Russia finances the project within the framework of «The State Programme of the Development of Agriculture and Regulation of Agricultural Produce, Raw Materials and Food Markets for 2008-2012».
Broiler meat from RUBEG farms is produced under the trade mark «Vazhnaya Ptitsa» (Bird of Significance). Assortment includes: frozen and chilled whole chicken, wide variety of chilled semi-prepared products (breasts, legs, rounds, fillet, drums, wings), frozen giblets.
