The facility will produce the group’s portfolio of instant beverage products including its flagship MacCoffee brand of instant coffee-mix. Food Empire expects to export up to 50% of the products manufactured at the new facility to Central Asia and the Caucasus.
Food Empire has secured a US$10 million ($13.35 million) loan from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) for the construction of its new coffee-mix manufacturing facility in Kazakhstan.
The facility is located within the Khorgos Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in Kazakhstan, and it is Food Empire’s first manufacturing facility in the country.
