Microfruits to Invest €100 Million in Romania Over the Next Five Years

Microfruits Group, a leading distributor and producer of fresh fruits and vegetables, is planning a significant expansion in Romania, with €100 million earmarked for investments over the next four to five years. The company aims to strengthen its agribusiness operations and boost internal production capacities for processed products.

A key focus of the investment is the expansion of cultivated agricultural areas in Romania and the construction of a state-of-the-art collection, processing, and storage center in Balta Doamnei, Prahova County.

In November 2023, Microfruits applied for funding under the national INVESALIM program to support this project. The planned facility, valued at €48 million, will be partially funded through a €32 million grant from the Ministry of Finance – AFIR program, with the remaining €16 million coming from the company’s own resources.

Designed with energy efficiency in mind, the facility will feature photovoltaic panels across the warehouse to minimize its environmental footprint. The investment is expected to be completed by the first half of 2027.
