PAVA implements a new strategy creating a leading agroindustrial holding, based on vertical integration. It was named “GlobalAgro” consolidating daughter companies “Russian Agricultural Division” (RAD) and “Grainvest”.

RAD is a land-owning subsidiary of PAVA, engaged in agricultural production. The concept of RAD activities is to acquire and cultivate lands in Russia with a view to establish a large-scale producer of valuable agricultural feedstock (wheat, barley, rye, sunflower seeds, buckwheat and peas) to be supplied on domestic and overseas markets.

Russian Agricultural Division focuses on vertically integrated agribusiness which includes growing, storage, drying and trading of grains.

Currently the company has about 150,000 ha of land under control.

“Grainvest” is an SPC for advanced processing of wheat grain. The project will expand the current milling facilities at Rebrikha mill (the Altay Territory) and install new lines for production of vital wheat gluten, starches, syrups and other ingredients with high added value.

Leading-edge technologies allow to create a virtually wasteless production, when by-products of one process are utilized as feedstock for the next.

Operations of deep wheat processing division will be characterized by maximum flexibility which enables prompt response to food market changes. In this way, the company may increase output of certain products adjusting to the growing demand.

Consolidation of farming activities and advanced processing project within the “GlobalAgro” structure reduces dependence on price volatility on the markets of grain and grain processing products.

Better margins coming from vertical integration will bring business profitability onto a new level and ensure quality chain from field to table.
