It has invested more than 12.8 million euros of its own funds in the 6000 sq metre factory, which gives jobs to 140 people. „The aim of our company is to produce tasteful and fresh food in the pure environment.

We did not imagine that we could build our ready-to-eat food factory into city conditions.

Why Rapla? Here is a good logistical servicing and a good business environment. We did not have any bureaucratic problems, on the contrary, Rapla County and Rapla municipality were very interested in getting our project to come through. For that matter I believe it is worth coming here.“ Märt Vilbaum Executive Director Saarioinen Eesti OÜ
