The production will take place at the existing Novofruct SK plant in Nové Zámky (Nitra Region), with the company securing certified production, employees, and product packaging.

“We are very pleased to find a production partner in Slovakia with the high-quality technology and high production standards that our production requires,” said Jana Gregorová of Novea Group, as quoted by SITA. “I hope that we will be able to start production of fruit and vegetable puree under our own Neyla brand in a relatively short space of time, which will later be followed by meat products.”

“Recipes have already been designed and tested, and altogether eighteen products of different compositions and flavours will be presented to customers at the Dubai Fair,” Gregorová added, as quoted by SITA.
