VITEBSK, 5 July (BelTA) – The Belarusian dairy manufacturer OAO Glubokoye Tinned Milk Factory plans to penetrate the markets of Vietnam and China, the company’s Deputy Director General for Commerce Sergei Stolyaronok told BelTA. To promote its products in Vietnam, the company takes part in establishing a Belarusian-Vietnamese trading house in the city of Hanoi. Potential partners have been sent samples of whole-milk and skimmed milk powder, whey and relevant documents. The prices are being negotiated.
