Rice, pulses, oats, muesli, flour, salt, vinegar, rice cakes… anyone striving to eat a balanced, healthy and varied diet relies on these products and buys them regularly. They know which brands consistently deliver high quality solutions, and they repeatedly choose their products – whether shopping in large supermarket chains or local corner shops.

Yet even the most active and well-informed consumer rarely thinks about the professionals and organisations behind the regular and easy access to high-quality food products in Bulgaria.

Global Food Company IZZI: A tradition of excellent taste

Global Food Company IZZI is a name more consumers should know. Thanks to the company's long-standing efforts and innovative approach, millions of consumers across the country can be certain they will never be without their favourite brands of pearl, baldo or basmati rice, vanilla muesli, delicious beans, white or corn flour, quality salt – and much more.

Global Food Company IZZI is a Bulgarian company specialising in the import, processing, packaging and trade of food products, and it stands behind some of the market's most popular and beloved brands – IZZI, SORTE and INCOM.

The exciting journey of Global Food Company IZZI began 30 years ago with the launch of the IZZI brand in 1996. The quality of the products under this label quickly secured distribution in the large retail chains that were entering the market at the time. Yet one achievement proved even more important: IZZI succeeded in winning the more significant battle, that for consumers' hearts.

Nine years later, the company responded to changing consumer habits towards healthier eating with an important step in its development – the introduction of a product range including muesli, oats and rice cakes. Over time, Global Food Company IZZI also established a foreign trade division and began exporting its products abroad.

Ambition, innovation, achievement

Since then, market success has remained a constant feature of Global Food Company IZZI's development, while continuous change and adaptation to consumer demands have become part of its way of life.

The company uses modern processing and packaging technologies that guarantee the high quality of the raw materials, packaging and presentation. The implemented ERP system covers the company's information needs in the areas of production, warehousing, accounting, finance, marketing and sales. The result is efficient management in which employees across every part of the chain understand that they are part of a larger process and work together harmoniously towards shared success.

Recognising the challenges that global climate change and the turbulent international political environment pose to food production and supply chains, Global Food Company IZZI has also turned its attention to the opportunities for growing its own ingredients in Bulgaria.

The future of a leader

Global Food Company IZZI's plans for future development are ambitious, but the company's management has already proven its ability to achieve its goals.

The company has expanded its production capacity with a fruit and vegetable processing facility featuring autonomous power supply (with a planned annual capacity of 1,500 tonnes), two new high-tech packaging machines, and a new machine for rice crisps production. A new factory for blanched potatoes is also set to open soon, with a planned production capacity of 2,000 tonnes per year.

Many manufacturers face energy-related challenges, but Global Food Company IZZI is prepared for them with its own three photovoltaic power plants that have a combined capacity of 1 megawatt, as well as battery units for electricity storage.

Labour shortages are another challenge facing businesses in Bulgaria. Global Food Company IZZI adopted an unconventional yet effective approach to address the issue. The company's owner, Mr Damian Ivanov, integrated into the business a collaboration with another of his companies – YSP Job Solutions.

Established nearly 30 years ago, YSP Job Solutions is a well-established name on the Bulgarian labour market, providing efficient and legally compliant support in arranging seasonal and long-term employment for Bulgarians across Europe. Mr Ivanov's visionary decision to expand the activities of YSP Job Solutions towards the recruitment and employment of workers from third countries to Bulgaria was a bold yet successful step that ensured the optimal development of both companies. Today, the two businesses operate synergistically. YSP Job Solutions provides Global Food Company IZZI with qualified, motivated and hardworking employees from abroad.

Thanks to the visionary and integrative approach of the management of Global Food Company IZZI, the company's products have become a preferred choice not only for consumers in Bulgaria, but for a growing number of Europeans as well. The company is a key supplier to major European supermarket chains, including Aldi UK and Aldi Austria, Kaufland Germany, Slovakia, Poland, Slovenia, Romania and Bulgaria, REWE Group Romania, and REWE Group Austria.

Global Food Company IZZI: Вкус, който познавате

Компанията, която тихо, но неотклонно, стои зад въможността да избираме качествени и здравословни хранителни продукти всеки ден на изгодна цена

Ориз, варива, овесени ядки, мюсли, брашно, сол, оцет, оризовки… всеки, който се стреми да се храни балансирано, здравословно и разнообразно, разчита на тези продукти и активно ги купува. Той познава марките, при които качеството е постоянна величина, и редовно избира техните  продукти – независимо дали пазарува в големите вериги или в кварталните магазинчета.

Но и най-активният и търсещ информация потребител рядко се замисля за професионалистите и организациите, които стоят зад редовния и лесен достъп до висококачествени хранителни продукти в България.

Global Food Company IZZI: Традиция на отличен вкус

Global Food Company IZZI е име, което повече потребители трябва да познават. Благодарение на дългогодишните усилия и иновативните подходи на компанията милиони потребители в страната са сигурни, че никога няма да останат без любимите си марки бисерен, балдо или басмати ориз, ванилови мюсли, вкусен боб, бяло или царевично брашно, качествена сол – и още много.

Global Food Company IZZI е българската компания за внос, преработка, пакетиране и търговия с хранителни продукти, която стои зад някои от най-популярните и обичани марки на пазара – IZZI, SORTE и INCOM.

Вълнуващото пътешествие на Global Food Company IZZI започва преди 30 години – с дебюта на бранда IZZI през 1996 г. Качеството на продуктите с тази марка бързо им печели дистрибуция в големите търговски вериги, които по това време активно навлизат на българския пазар. Но едно постижение е по-голямо – IZZI успява да спечели по-важната битка, тази за сърцата на потребителите.

Девет години по-късно, компанията отговаря на промяната в потребителските навици в посока на по-здравословно хранене, с важна стъпка в развитието си – разработването на продуктовата група на мюслите, овесените ядки и оризовките. С времето Global Food Company IZZI отваря и звено за външна търговия и започва да изнася продуктите си в чужбина.

Амбиции, иновации, постижения

Оттогава пазарният успех е неизменен спътник на Global Food Company IZZI, а постоянната промяна и адаптацията към изискванията на потребителите се превръщат в нейн начин на живот.

Компанията използва съвременни технологии за преработка и пакетиране, които гарантират високото качество на суровината, опаковката и визията. Внедрената ERP система (управленски софтуер за планиране на ресурсите) покрива информационните нужди на компанията в сферите на производството, складирането, счетоводството, финансите, маркетинга и продажбите. Резултатът е ефективен мениджмънт, в който служителите във всяко звено от веригата осъзнават, че са част от по-голям процес, и работят като хармонично цяло за общия успех.

Осъзнавайки предизвикателството, което глобалната промяна на климата и международната политическа ситуация поставят пред производството на храна и веригите на доставки, Global Food Company IZZI обръща поглед и към възможностите да отглежда собствени суровини в България.

Бъдещето на един лидер

Плановете за бъдещо развитие на Global Food Company IZZI са амбициозни, но мениджмънтът на компанията вече е доказал, че умее да постига целите си.

Компанията разшири производствения си капацитет с база за преработка на плодове и зеленчуци с автономно електрозахранване (планирано количество от 1500 тона годишно), две нови високотехнологични машини за пакетиране и нова машина за производство на оризов чипс. Предстои отварянето и на нов завод за бланширани картофи (планирано производство от 2000 тона годишно).

Много производители се сблъскват с енергийни предизвикателства, но Global Food Company IZZI е подготвена за тях с три собствени фотоволтаични централи с общ капацитет 1 мегават и батерийни блокове за съхраняване на електроенергия.

Недостигът на работна ръка е друго предизвикателство пред бизнеса в България. Global Food Company IZZI приложи нетрадиционен, но ефективен начин да се справи с него. Собственикът, г-н Дамян Иванов, интегрира в работата партньорство с друга своя компания – YSP Job Solution.

Създадена преди близо 30 години, YSP Job Solutions е утвърдено име на българския трудов пазар с ефективна и законосъобразна помощ в изпращането на българи на сезонна и дългосрочна работа в страни от Европа. Визионерското решение на г-н Иванов да разшири дейността на YSP Job Solutions в посока подбор и внос на работници от трети страни за България беше дръзка, но успешна крачка, която гарантира оптималното развитие и на двете компании. Днес двете компании работят в синергия. YSP Job Solutions осигурява на Global Food Company IZZI квалифицирани, мотивирани и работещи кадри от чужбина.

Благодарение на визионерския, интегративен подход на ръководството на Global Food Company IZZI, продуктите на компанията са предпочитаният избор не само от потребителите в България – но и на все повече европейци. Компанията е основен доставчик на големи европейски вериги супермаркети – Aldi Великобритания и Aldi Австрия, Kaufland Германия, Словакия, Полша, Словения, Румъния и България, REWE Group за Румъния и REWE Group Австрия.
