The SBH Russia together with the Swiss Embassy in Moscow and Switzerland Global Enterprise invited Swiss companies to take part in a fact finding mission to the Russian regions of Voronezh and Belgorod focused on the Russian food processing and agricultural industry. The mission took place on 15-18 March 2016. Our business mission was led by the Swiss Ambassador in Russia, Pierre Helg, and provided excellent opportunities for better understanding the market potential of these two regions. In addition to meeting regional top officials, the participants had the opportunity to get B2B meetings with local producers in the agricultural and food industry.
