Groundbreaking and project inauguration at Gyermelyi
2025. 07. 14.
Over the next two years, Gyermelyi Zrt. will build and expand several production units. The investment program includes a new, fully automated high-bay warehouse, an expansion of pasta production capacity, and packaging development. With the support of the VIP Cash Subsidy Program, the investment – whose foundation stone was laid today – is intended to ensure the company’s ability to meet the continuously growing domestic and export demand. In addition, the project inauguration of the solar power plant and energy storage facility – implemented as part of the Factory Rescue Program – also took place at the site of Hungary’s leading pasta producer. The total value of the two investments exceeds EUR 34 million.
Founded more than 70 years ago by 12 local farmers, Gyermelyi Zrt. is Hungary’s leading pasta producer, the country’s largest egg producer, and a key player in the milling industry. At its production site in the town of Gyermely, automated, interconnected systems are in operation, and the pasta production lines are complemented by modern packaging machines. The flour used for pasta is produced in the company’s own three mills, and the eggs used also come from within Gyermelyi. The company’s egg division produces 175 million eggs annually, 90 million of which are used in the pasta plant, while the remainder is sold to industrial users and the retail sector.
The company group operates a fully closed vertical integration system, which is unique even on a European scale. This provides significant security in terms of both quantity and quality for Gyermelyi products. The integration model enables quality-focused, cost-efficient production, minimizing transport costs and environmental impact. To support continuous modernization and to meet domestic and export demand, the company will expand with several new production units over the next two years. The development program includes a new, fully automated high-bay warehouse with a 10,000-pallet capacity, system upgrades in existing warehouses, the expansion of the pasta plant, and the development of the packaging system.
As Hungary’s leading food industry player, the company is committed to sustainable operations. In addition to expanding production capacity, a solar power plant and energy storage unit have also been put into operation, the inauguration of which also took place. As a result, the company now covers one-quarter of its electricity needs from renewable energy sources.
The total value of the investments supported by the VIP Cash Subsidy and the Factory Rescue programs exceeds EUR 34 million.
