To make baby food more competitive recipes need to be improved, Sergei Sidorsky says
15:49:46 27/11 АНГЛ,НЕТ,СМ/ 38,РГВ To make baby food more competitive, the recipes need to be improved, Prime Minister of Belarus Sergei Sidorsky said during a session of the Presidium of the Council of Ministers which discussed the Children of Belarus Programme 2006-2010. According to him, the baby food manufacturers have been increasing the output. However, while upgrading, the producers are not diversifying the recipes. There are around 1.5 million cans stored at warehouses. This means the product is not that popular on the domestic market. “Why increase the output if the warehouses are stocked up to the roof?” the Prime Minister asked. “A demand for a product is an indicator of its quality, Sergei Sidorsky stressed.- Therefore the Health Ministry and Ministry of Agriculture and Foodstuffs need to boost the production of high quality baby food, first of all, by means of improving the recipes so that Belarusian products enjoy demand in the domestic market first of all. The money should be assigned for promising projects”.
