The new project by OJSC PAVA ensures development of the industrial potential in the region and is aimed at improving competitiveness of the products, new product launches, introduction of advanced technologies in crop cultivation as well as livestock farming, significant increase in the outputs of food and non-food products.

Therefore, its implementation is an important goal not only for the company but also for the Altay Territory administration, business and financial community of the Siberian region and even Russia on the whole. This overall importance strengthens the firm belief of the project developers that the plant will be constructed in the nearest future.

Competitive advantages of PAVA are among the main determinants of success. Firstly, these are:

· unique experience in the agricultural and processing business;

· developed infrastructure (modern processing and storing enterprises, transportation by motor vehicles and railroad cars);

· professional management team, qualified employees with a wide range of skills, necessary for working on the innovative project.

PAVA is actively enlarging the scale of its own farming operations seeking independent supplies of high-quality raw materials for the company’s grain processing facilities. Efficient production of cereal crops ensures feedstock security of the advanced grain processing plant.

In addition, the production technology of the new processing plant is characterized by maximum flexibility which enables prompt reaction on food market changes and allows appropriate increase of the outputs for which the demand has grown.

Then, there are excellent geographic and natural conditions of the Altay Territory – one of the largest granaries of the country. This region is an established wheat-growing leader in Siberia and is among the three leading regions in Russia by the volume of wheat grain produced. What is especially important, the Altay wheat is rich in protein which makes it a perfect feedstock for production of vital wheat gluten.

All of these factors constitute the basis for successful implementation of the new PAVA project for advanced processing of wheat grain.
