Ruscam - Bottle Plant For Krasnodar

Glass bottle maker Ruscam, a subsidiary of Turkey's Andolu Cam Sanayii, is to establish production in southern Russia by 2008. The company will invest around 75M Euros to set up production in the Krymsk District, Krasnodar Territory. The new factory will produce around 700M bottles/pa. Analysts are in no doubt that the future output will find a market: the bottling of beverages in Russia has been growing by 10-15% per year, with a corresponding increase in glass bottle consumption.
