Thus, the group has overshot another mark, following a steady upward trend in recent years. Lactalis Romania comprises four companies with a long history in the local dairy industry – Albalact, Dorna Lactate, Covalact, and Raraul, as well as a division active in the juice industry, Parmalat Romania, and a logistics division, Lactalis Logistics.

All companies in the group are profitable. On the other hand, in terms of the number of employees, there has been a decline at nearly all companies in the group, except for Raraul. The five companies had more than 1,460 employees on average together last year, 120 fewer than the previous year, according to ZF calculations based on Finance Ministry data.
