On July 30, Udmurtia exported 437 thousand chicken eggs to the UAE from the Varaksino Poultry Factory LLC, a part of the KOMOS GROUP agricultural holding, following receival of accreditation from Russia's Rosselkhoznadzor on July 2. The eggs were loaded onto a container at Novorossiysk port and are expected to arrive in Dubai's Jebel Ali port by late August - early September. This export marks the result of efforts to understand the UAE market's needs, which began at the GULFOOD-2020 international exhibition. Since then, the factory has undergone significant modernizations, supported by a grant from the Ministry of Agriculture of Udmurtia, totaling over 56 million rubles. Udmurtia's poultry sector has experienced growth, with a 3.4% increase in egg production in the first half of 2021, surpassing 200% self-sufficiency.
