At MLEKOVIC, we are well aware that the quality of our products begins at the stage of obtaining the raw material. That is why our production is based on long-term partnerships with 15,000 Polish farmers – producers of the highest quality milk. We appreciate their daily work, aimed at improving the conditions of breeding and developing our own farms, and thus meeting the highest standards of the delivered raw material required by us – says Dariusz Sapiński, President of the Management Board of the MLEKOVITA Group . –An element of our strategy is also cooperation with the best suppliers of systems and solutions for food production, including packaging and machines with the highest pro-environmental standards in order to provide consumers with dairy products in a safe, effective and environmentally friendly way. We are constantly developing, modernizing our plants, investing in new production lines and technologies to make them as environmentally and socially friendly as possible .
