‘While planning the business strategy of Orkla Foods Latvija and assessing the development of product range, a decision was made to continue the operation of Valdlauči production unit in the framework of Orkla Foods Latvija. In Valdlauči, Ķekava region, we will continue to manufacture Everest drinking water, as well as Rīgas kvasa dzēriens, which is highly demanded not only in Latvia, but also in export markets,’ informs Dana Erciņa-Užāne, the Marketing Director of Orkla Foods Latvija.
