Romanian agribusiness group Agroland announced that it will access EUR 15 million in financing under the European Investment Bank\u2019s (EIB) Recovery and Resilience Plan to fund the expansion of its poultry platform at Mih\u0103ile\u0219ti.<\/p>\n
The investment, worth a total of EUR 20 million, will be used to build and equip 12 new halls with capacity for 600,000 laying hens.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The project, which will also be financed from the company\u2019s own resources, aims to triple current production levels and raise Agroland\u2019s flock to one million hens by the end of 2027. The expansion will strengthen Agroland\u2019s position as the largest producer of cage-free, free-range, and organic eggs in southern Romania.<\/p>\n
The loan, arranged via Raiffeisen Bank, will be backed by an EIB portfolio guarantee covering 80% of the facility.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Agroland\u2019s board has convened a shareholders\u2019 meeting on September 29 to approve the credit agreement and related collateral.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis strategic investment marks a key milestone in our long-term growth plan and in consolidating Agroland\u2019s leadership on Romania\u2019s agri-food market,\u201d said founder and Chief Executive Horia Cardo\u0219. \u201cSecuring financing under the EIB programme is a strong signal of confidence in our direction and confirms our growth plans are realistic and well-founded.\u201d<\/p>\n
