I.Metshin got acquainted with the modernization of the Kazan Dairy Plant

It is planned to complete the second stage, which will allow processing up to 700 tons of milk per day in 2021.

Ilsur Metshin, the Mayor of Kazan, got acquainted with the modernization of the Kazan Dairy Plant today. The modernization continues for more than three years at one of the largest milk processing plants in the Volga region.

"We are encouraged by the plans to implement a large modernization project. We can see how actively re-equipment is being developed – new equipment, a new product line. It is important that there is a modern production facility in Kazan. This means that our villagers will have more opportunities to sell their milk, and for us it is the food security of the city, a diversity of products in stores, affordable, high-quality and eco- friendly”, - I.Metshin said.

Kazan Dairy Plant, established in 1932, is one of the oldest enterprises in the city. Currently, it provides about 70 types of dairy and fermented milk products to the Russian market.

In 2017, the company began implementing an investment project for modernization. It is planned to be held in three stages.

Currently, the second stage is under way, by the end of which the dairy plant should reach the level of processing up to 700 tons per day.

The third stage starts next year, which implies infrastructure changes, which will allow the company to process up to 900-1000 tons of milk per day.
