ORSHA, 18 August (BelTA) – Belarusian Prime Minister Aleksandr Turchin visited Orsha Meat Canning Plant on 18 August, BelTA has learned.
The plant has been placed under the trust management of Agrokombinat Dzerzhinsky. Key topics of discussion included capacity utilization, development of the raw material base, and prospects for increasing production volumes, including canned meat and baby food.

It operates an automated line for baby food production, using meat from young animals raised without growth stimulants or antibiotics. The plant produces 12 types of meat purees for infants and has switched to glass packaging for baby food. The range of canned meat and meat-and-vegetable products includes 16 items, and animal feed - four. In July alone, the plant sold 1,109,000 cans of canned meat, in addition to baby food.
