Summary
The project financed the reconstruction of the Kodila meat processing company's production and sales facilities and the purchase of new equipment. A new building serving as a ripening depot and a shop was constructed. It was built using the traditional architecture style of the area using clay walls and a straw roof. The building also provided space for presentations and tastings. The existing processing premises were extended, renovated and modernised with new equipment for processing, internal transport, packaging, as well for computerised production and storage control.
