Meat Sector Study The company was established in 1992 on the Motorway to Durres, 4 k west of Tirana, is owned by the family Leka and an Italian partner at equal shares and has its main activities in processing meat into 70 kinds of salami (würstel, parizier, llukanik, milan, naples, saxony, montana and suxhuk salami) ham, ham with chicken fillet, chicken würstel, grill meatballs and an Italian San Daniele style ham (prosciutto). The products are sold in 13 EHW butcher shops (10 in Tirana) and according to the management EHW has 60 % market share in Tirana and 40 % in Albania! Due to the high local prices for meat all the required raw meat for processing is imported from Brazil, USA and Canada. The imported volume is around 3,500 tons per year what results in a daily processed amount of 10 tons. The company employs 200 people and makes an annual turnover of roughly Euro 20 million. IQNET and other international recognised certification companies have certified the company regarding quality management ISO 9001:2000, HACCP, food safety and others. Like the other Albanian meat processors also EHW is not importing the meat directly from abroad but uses the services of an international trader who purchases the meat on its own behalf or on behalf of EHW. Next steps will be an enlargement of the product range by additional trading products, especially cheese. But also fresh meat is sold in EHW shops; it is delivered there directly from 2 - 3 good local slaughterhouses. Main problem is limited supply of local meat and especially the inability to export due to non-enforcement of the veterinary law. Further investments could cover sewage water plant, especially to get rid of the fat swimming on top of this sewage water. KMY/Yzberish KMY is one of the oldest food processing companies in Albania. It started its activity in 1993 in the city of Tirana where is located its factory. The number of employees is 330. The range of products has been increased over the years. Currently the company produces more than 30 high quality products such as salami, ham, fresh and frozen meat because the company has a slaughterhouse on its own which is not open to the public. The required raw meat for processing is imported from: • Brazil, USA ,Canada, Uruguay 90 % • EU countries 7 % • Internal market 3 % KMY owns also a farm which is not in operation due to higher costs for raising pork, beef, etc. Actually the farm is used only as a collection point. KMY’s investments plans are: • Capacity expansion • Certification according to International Quality Standards to get in line with norms required by EU Meat Master The company was established a few years ago by Mr. Nrdek KIMCA, General Director and his two brothers in Shkoder. With one shift the company can process weekly 1,500 pigs and 500 cattle. The Albanian agriculture does not supply enough animals. Constraints are that Meat Sector Study, page 27
Meat Sector Study cattle are getting slaughtered too early, in Shkoder with 200 kg live weight; he would prefer 500 kg. He furthermore mentioned that small livestock keepers face problems when accessing the market. Regarding slaughterhouses there is none of acceptable quality, not even the FAO prototypes, and therefore he will invest into a new slaughterhouse outside town soon; he will relocate the whole company in a Greenfield investment.
