Dobrush Porcelain Factory makes first exports to Lebanon, Mongolia

GOMEL, 30 April (BelTA) – The Dobrush Porcelain Factory has made the first supplies of its products to Lebanon and Mongolia to the total tune of $25,000, BelTA learnt from Deputy Director General Nina Gorbatovskaya.

In her words, positive feedback shows that there is every chance that the cooperation in the area will be continued.

Seeking new markets is one of the most important aspects in the company's foreign economic activity. The Belarusian porcelain producers sustained losses of more than Br10 billion due to a sharp devaluation of the Russian ruble in late 2014.

In order to level down the consequences of similar situations in the future, the company is in extensive talks to conclude delivery contracts with the companies of Jordan, Romania, Georgia, the Balkan Peninsula and other countries. "Apart from that, we are looking to the ways to increase exports to the markets of Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Germany, and Sweden," said Nina Gorbatovskaya. In January-March 2015 the company's exports totaled over $2.4 million, almost 70% of its production volume.

Dobrush Porcelain Factory is the biggest producer of porcelain ware in Belarus. The first products were manufactured on 28 December 1978. The company has its quality management system certified for the compliance with the standard of ISO 9000 (STB ISO 9001-2001). The company employs over 1,300 professionals.
