COMPANY HISTORY Savara Group’s story of remarkable accomplishments |
|
| Savara
Group was founded in 1994 when
the company purchased the assets and assumed the
liabilities of the former Savara Division of Walt &
Polla International, Inc. Walt & Polla is a New
York-based import/export concern specializing in
international trade with Russia. Savara Group now
operates as an independent "S" corporation
organized under the laws of New York State. Since Savara Group’s inception, the company has steadily increased its sales volume. It has expanded its product line and operations, formed strategic alliances with world-class suppliers such as The Colombian Coffee Federation, Voss (sauces, condiments), Tulip (meat products), Rot-Front and Babaevskaya (confectioneries), and strengthened its marketing and advertising programs. The company’s overall growth trend has been impressive, with average yearly increases in net profits of approximately 10 percent. |
The 1996 opening of Savara Group’s nut roasting facility highlights the
company’s drive to expand it’s manufacturing
capabilities. Located in the Kimki region of Moscow, the
8,000 square meter facility features U.S. manufactured,
state-of-the-industry roasting, spicing, coating and
packaging systems, and has a production capacity of one
metric ton per hour. This new facility, along with other
on-site manufacturing initiatives, will help SavaraGroup decrease tariff payments of finished and  semi-finished
goods, increase its profit margins and attract lucrative
private-label manufacturing contracts with other Russian
food companies. |
