Confectionery company LOTTE Rakhat intends to supply its products to the Persian Gulf and Caucasus countries, said company board chairman Akhmed Akhrorov. This was reported by Qazaqyia.kz citing Kursiv Media.
"Today, LOTTE Rakhat products are supplied to Russia, Central Asian countries, China, Mongolia, Afghanistan, and Germany. We continue to expand our sales geography while exploring new promising markets, including the Persian Gulf and Caucasus region," he said in his welcome speech in the company's 2025 report.
According to him, more than 250 product items of the company are certified according to the Halal standard, which creates a solid foundation for further expansion of LOTTE Rakhat's export presence in markets with high demand for halal products.
The company plans to maintain sustainable production growth rates and continue work on expanding sales markets. The enterprise's current capacity allows producing up to 100,000 tons of products annually.
"The continued rise in raw material prices in 2025, including cocoa beans, led to a decline in financial results compared to the previous year," Akhmed Akhrorov reported.
He noted that in 2025 the company launched new products on the market. In particular, the ZERO line without added sugar was launched, and the range of waffle products was expanded. Also in 2025, the company invested in the production of corn snacks, laying the foundation for further expansion of the product portfolio.
