Overall, with financing provided by Vnesheconombank, the agribusiness company built 75 farms with a total of over 550,000 head of cattle and constructed and put into operation a modern advanced cattle slaughtering and processing facility with a capacity of 400,000 head of cattle a year. The area of farmland used for fodder production and grazing in the regions is more than 500,000 hectares. The project created over 8,700 jobs with an average monthly salary of 35,000 roubles. A section of the slaughterhouse dealing with the processing of other meat products is in the design phase. Work continues on constructing a hide processing plant, freezing rooms and a meat storage facility.

The Supervisory Board approved Vnesheconombank’s financing for the pilot project for beef production in 2010. Miratorg started the construction of the first two cattle farms in January 2011. Six months later, the company received from Australia the first batch of animals, namely 6,000 head of Aberdeen Angus cattle. Vnesheconombank’s participation in the project to expand the capacity of the facility was approved in 2014.
The Bryansk farms currently have more than 358,000 head of cattle, with tens of thousands of calves born in Russia every year.
