High quality products recognised at Meat Industry International Forum

Cherkizovo Group, one of Russia's leading integrated and diversified meat producers, is pleased to announce it has received a number of awards at the Meat Industry International Forum (MIIF), recognising the high quality products offered within the Group's meat processing division.

The Group was presented with several Grand Prix awards, the highest accolade awarded by the MIIF, for its ‘Kazachia' brand of semi-smoked salami, its ‘Palmira' brand of pork roll and its ‘Doktorskaya' brand of cooked salami.

The meat processing division was also awarded with two gold medals, the next level of quality acknowledgment, for its ‘Proshutto' brand of raw-smoked salami and ‘Teliachia po-cherkizovsky' brand of cooked salami. In addition to this, eight of Cherkizovo's other brands were awarded silver medals for high quality.

The MIIF is one of the most significant events in the meat industry within Russia, focused on raising and acknowledging standards of quality. It is attended annually in Moscow by over 700 meat industry professionals from across the globe.

These awards are further to Cherkizovo last year being granted one Grand Prix award for its "Armavirskaya" brand of high quality semi-smoked sausage, a gold medal for its delicacy product range (including the "Po-streletsky" brand of meat rolls, "Imperskaya" ham, raw smoked products such as "Milanskya" salami and "Felino" sausage products) and silver medals for its canned beef product "Govyadina tushenaya v/s" and cooked-smoked sausage "Felino" brand.
