YEREVAN, OCTOBER 30, NOYAN TAPAN. Soya East Ltd, a company set up
in Yerevan a year ago, produces milk, condensed milk and cheese,
as well as meat and cheese surrogates from soya, with all these
products being certified and corresponding to state standards of
Armenia and Russia. The company produces 80 kg of condenced milk and
20-30 kg of meat surrogates daily. The company's director Doctor
of Technical Sciences Anahit Beglarian told NT correspondent that
over ten foodstuffs produced by Soya East have both preventive and
curative properties. For example, soya milk is a rare foodstuff of
plant origin and does not contain lactose and cholesterol. According
to her, the use of 25 grams of soya protein each day reduces the risk
of cardiovascular and renal diseases and helps prevent such diseases as
diabetes, diathesis and cancer. A. Beglarian said that Soya East is the
only Armenian company that tries to use soya in food industry. The
company provides part of the raw materials imported from Russia
to the local meat half-finished product manufacturing plants and
confectionery factories. "Soya is in great demand in many foreign
countries, whereas in Armenia only first steps in this direction are
being taken. Our purpose is to contribute to the spread of products
made from soya in the domestic market," A. Beglarian noted.
