Last year, 'Stanislavska Cheese Factory' received the most prestigious award in its category at the World Cheese Awards 2022 - the Super Gold. Much has changed for the better at the enterprise over the past year.
Founder of 'Stanislavska Cheese Factory,' Natalia Palchak, shared these developments.
"After the competition, brand recognition grew. However, we have also invested a lot to achieve this. We changed our development strategy and began to dream on a larger scale. Sales volumes increased, allowing us to invest more in the expansion and development of the cheese factory. Additionally, we won a grant from Diia.Business and will launch a mobile shop for on-the-go sales, similar to what is done in Europe," Natalia Palchak explained.
She added that the cheese factory has found a new supplier and plans to experiment with sheep's milk cheeses. However, the main plan for the enterprise is scaling up, increasing production and sales volumes, and building a facility with production and tasting rooms.
"But this all happens slowly; first, a strong market with significant players must be established. We have noticed positive trends: producers are starting to gain respect, and there is demand for local craft products from both locals and tourists, as everyone is seeking an emotional connection," noted Natalia Palchak.
