40% increase in revenue for Smithfield Romania | Progresiv

American group Smithfield, the largest pork producer worldwide and local market leader has reported RON1.2bn revenue in 2019, a significant increase compared to the RON868m recorded in the previous year. At the same time, it almost doubled its net profit, reaching RON54m in 2019.

The number of employees also grew to 2.336, as the company expanded its activity to meat production and packaging.

Last year, Smithfield took over a cold cuts factory in Arad in order to "consolidate the company's operations by adding new meat processing units to already existing facilities," company representatives said at the time.

Smithfield Romania is part of Smithfield Foods Inc, which operates under China's WH Group Limited.
