Gourmet plans to regain position

Charcuterie and meat products maker Gourmet plans to invest some 5.7m euros in expanding the activity of its factory and in building a new one for processing meat. The new investments are intended to bring the company back to consumers’ attention as it lost ground during the boom of players on this market in the last few years, even though Gourmet is one of the first private firms in this industry in Romania. Gourmet currently accounts for 2% of the market and plans to climb to 3.2% – 3.5% by next year, according to general manager Mihai Lungu. ZF
