Orrero, an Italian-controlled cheese producer, unveiled its intention to significantly increase its production volumes in the Czech Republic, portal aktualne.centrum.cz reported. It will invest in increasing the output of its factory in Litovel.
The company plans to increase the production of cheeses which are exported to Italy. At present, around 95% of the factory’s output is exported to this country, while 5% is consumed in the Czech Republic.
The factory processes 240,000 litres of milk daily. After the reconstruction production will increase to 440,000 litres per day.
According to estimates by the Czech Dairy Association, consumption of dairy products increased by 7% on the year in 2009 in the country and equalled 250 kg milk products per capita. The growing consumption was satisfied mostly by the growing imports since the domestic dairy production decreased.
Orrero reported a CZK 700m (€28m) sales revenue in 2009, and managed to stay in the black.
