"The first batch of the production headed out to China last week – it
is around 200 tons," Dalius Trumpa, board chairman at Rokiskio Suris, told
BNS.
He told BNS in late October that the company had agreed on exports of over
800 tons of mozzarella to China, with the agreement facilitated by New
Zealand's dairy processing giant Fonterra, which bought around 10 percent of
Rokiskio Suris' shares for 7.1 million euros in October.
Three Lithuanian companies already export dairy to China: in addition to
Rokiskio Suris, Vilkyskiu Pienine (Vilkyskiu Dairy) exported 20 tons of
mozzarella and Marijampoles Pieno Konservai (Marijampole Canned Milk) exported
about 100 tons of canned unsweetened milk.
