Baader has discussed plans for its increased involvement in Russia’s fishery business with governmental officials.
Baader confirmed the negotiations as its chief executive officer, Petra Baader, spoke about the new development strategy of Russia’s fishery industry at the Global Fishery Forum & International exhibition.
Ms Baader highlighted those parts of the Russian fishery development program where BAADER is prepared to support Russian fishing and processing companies at last month’s St Petersburg event.

Robert Focke, managing director of Baader, delivered a presentation on the company at roundtable ‘Fishing Fleet of the Future’ and highlighted the modern trends in onboard fish processing development.
He said that that BAADER has worked in Russia for 25 years and is ready to face new challenges in equipping new whitefish and pelagic fishing trawlers.
Training engineers and technicians maintaining fish processing equipment is important, he highlighted, announcing Baader’s plan for joint activities with Russian educational institutions.
