A business that began in the 1990s has, in most cases, gone out of business or moved into other niches. Companies that have managed to survive and continue their activities in the once chosen field are highly viable, often thanks to the leadership’s grasp, who began to pave the way to capital. The company "Agrocomplex" (Vyselkovsky district) is one of the examples of successful implementation of plans.
History
Agrocomplex (Vyselkovsky) has been operating in the Krasnodar Territory for over 20 years. In the perestroika nineties, starting a business was risky, and to many it seemed an adventurous undertaking. Skeptics and pessimists were wrong, started in 1993, the agricultural complex has grown to the largest holding, which includes more than sixty enterprises. The structure and organization of the company are combined in a single agricultural production cycle, working on the principle “from field to counter”, providing consumers with high-quality food products.
The company got its start from the union of several procurers, processors and agricultural producers, forced to resort to consolidation as opposed to the ongoing decline in the industry. The lack of working capital, the reduction in the number of animals on farms, and the lack of state support led to the elimination of many farms. Those who did not agree to give up in an era of change united in a single structure, which helped to survive at first, and then increase production capacities and break out into leaders.
Today Agrocomplex (Vyselkovsky district) employs 24 thousand people, receives agricultural products from 200 thousand hectares of arable land, the company's production complexes are located in several regions of the Krasnodar Territory, a branded chain of stores with its own products is spread across many cities of Russia
