TESTIMONIALS
“First of all, we would like to inform you that we are a small family business and we are trying despite the difficult current conditions, especially in Greece, to grow in any way possible. Our machinery are very old...are planning many years to set up a new rice-mill plant with new machinery, but our tight economic budget does not allow it. We already have a new building ready, but we do not have the machinery yet. Also, the power is very expensive in Greece and saving power from the machinery will help us be more competitive in our markets.” MAMA Rice Greece
“Day by day rice milling business is getting more difficult because of decreasing profit percentages. So we would like to make investment on your technology to make more profits from our business.” Erdoglar Food Company Inc. Turkey
