4 May 2019

Alapala managers and African millers visited Alapala's project, established with Capwell Industries, one of Kenya's most important flour producers. The plant became one of the reference projects of Africa with its technology and high hygiene standards.

Leading representatives of the African mill sector visited Alapala, one of the world's leading companies in the mill machinery sector, with a 250 TPD capacity facility for the largest flour producer in Kenya, Capwell Industries. During the visit, which was accompanied by Alapala CEO Mr. Görkem Alapala, the participants were also informed about the technology, production and grinding processes of the Capwell project.

The trip was also widely held in the May issue of Milling and Grain magazine, one of the industry's leading publications.

Görkem Alapala, CEO of Alapala made a statement about the trip to Capwell Industries: It was a reference project that could meet all the needs. It was a very proud job to visit this facility with the leading millers in Africa. Africa is quite large and open to development. Introducing the projects we have implemented as Alapala in the sector to the important players in the sector will open the door of new cooperation. Africa is also a country that requires quite different processes in terms of production conditions and grinding stages. As Alapala, we are able to meet all process needs with our understanding of tailor-made milling. African millers congratulated us for the efficiency and trouble-free operation of our facility by expressing their gratitude to us.”
