Following the successful operation of a
600 tons per day turnkey flour mill, commissioned three years ago and operating
reliably since then, Alapala announces a new agreement with Brazil-based Marata
Group for additional flour milling investments totalling 1,600 tpd capacity.
The new contracts, signed by Alapala International Inc., represent a total project value of USD 12.8 million and mark a significant expansion of Marata Group’s milling operations. With the addition of the new 1,600 tpd capacity to the existing 600-tpd facility, Marata Group’s total installed flour milling capacity will reach 2,200 tpd. The new facilities are scheduled to be delivered within 2026, with initial equipment shipments already completed, confirming that the projects are progressing in line with the agreed execution schedule.
The previously commissioned 600-tpd flour mill, delivered by Alapala and operational since 2022, has demonstrated strong performance in terms of capacity utilization, product quality, operational stability, and energy efficiency. The sustained success of this facility played a key role in Marata Group’s decision further to expand its production capacity in partnership with Alapala.
Görkem Alapala, CEO of Alapala Holding Inc., commented: “This new agreement with Marata Group is a strong confirmation of the long term value we aim to create with our customers. The successful operation of the 600-tpd plant over the past three years built a solid foundation of trust, performance, and transparency. Expanding this partnership with an additional 1.600 TPD capacity, bringing the total installed capacity to 2,200 tpd, is not only a commercial milestone but also a clear endorsement of Alapala’s engineering quality, project execution capabilities, and long-term commitment to our clients.”
He added: “As Alapala Holding Inc., we are proud to see Alapala International Inc. continue to strengthen our global footprint through such strategic projects, supporting food producers worldwide with reliable, high-performance, and future-ready solutions.”
