The new production will also contribute to the development of other sectors of the economy, meeting the needs of the food and pharmaceutical industries for high-quality glass containers, thereby reducing the cost of production and improving its quality.
In addition, the workshop will provide hundreds of new jobs.
The workshop was awarded certificates from the companies that participated in the project.
