From March 14, 2018 to March 17, 2018, we took part at Moldagrotech 2018 in Chisinau, the largest and most visited exhibition in Moldavia. At this important agricultural event, we presented ourselves together with our business partner - SRL "Modern DFSA".
We have participated this exhibition after several years thanks to the collaboration that seems to be very effective with great potential for the future.
Our partner presented the DUO press on which the sunflower was pressed and, at the request of the customers, the tomato seeds. During the exhibition days we were attended by the Minister of Agriculture of Moldova - Mr. Liviu Volkonovic. He wished us a lot of success in our work on the Moldovan market and and offered us the opportunity of further cooperation. He was interested in our idea of local processing of agricultural commodities at place of production and the possibility of gaining value added to farmers.
A large number of potential customers also visited our stand, who showed great interest in our technologies, the Compact pressing shop and small capacity presses.Now we negotiating with these customers and preparing a specific solution according to their requests.
Agro Animal Show exhibition
At the end of February, we attended the Agro Animal Show in Kiev, Ukraine. It is the most important exhibition in Ukraine in terms of feed and agricultural technologies for processing.
The stand at the exhibition was organized through the Czech Trade agency and therefore was situated in a block of several Czech companies, together with companies such as JK Machinery or ENVI Product. As an exhibit, we had a small-capacity press DUO, which was provided by our Ukrainian dealer "Anatol".
During the exhibition took placed several business meetings - some were agreed in advance, sometimes it was the first contact with the customer. Throughout the exhibition, there was considerable public interest.
Parallelly with the exhibition there took place the accompanying event - conference organized by the Association of soybean growers and processors, called "Ukrainian Soy - Organic and Traditional". Attendance at the conference was about 120 - 150 people, represented by agroholders, processors, as well as universities. At this conference, we had a presentation "Organic Soy Processing - EP1 RECU + Technology", where we summed up the revolutionary significance of modern EP1 RECU + technology, namely for Ukrainian processors. This presentation was a perfect follow-up to the basic theme of the conference and was a vivid and genuine interest. In the presentation, we also focused on the benefits of local processing and the ability to process soy mechanically without hexane = hexane free technology.
It also should be reminded that soybean cultivation in Ukraine over the last 5 years has been growing steadily, rising from about 1.5 million tons / year to current almost 5 mil. ton / year, and the Ukraine becomes the most important grower in Europe. At the same time, processing capacities are being completed, although most of the soybean that has been produced is still unprocessed from Ukraine. Unfortunately, the soy extraction technology has been won by soy processing. Now - thanks to the new EP1 RECU + technology, we have the opportunity to push this technology into the large processing plants with performance over 300 tons per day.
We are currently working on several of these projects, thanks to our experience from Gamota pressing plant we haveattractive technology for the mechanical processing of oil seeds.
