The year 2008 was marked by 'tough decisions' of large international players such as Kraft Foods, Coca Cola HBC, or Colgate Palmolive, who decided to outsource their production lines in countries like Bulgaria and Poland.
Bunge, one of the most important players in vegetable oil market in Romania, was closing down oil factory at Kaliakra (Bulgaria) and was outsourcing its upstream activities in Romania.
Bunge invested some 25 million euros last year in retooling the factory it held in Brasov, where it transferred the oil production from Iasi-based facility, which was shut down. The reorganization plan included the concentration of all operations of crushing, grinding and bottling that Bunge conducts in Romania, at Buzau.
