- Setting up of modern quality and safety monitoring facilities for bee products

- Development of bee product based biologically active food supplements

- Financial support of medical R&D studies on positive effects of bee products on human health

- Financial support of bee health-related scientific R&D studies

In 2006 full-scale production was launched in a brand new, purpose built 2,500sq.m. production facility in the town of Bykovo, Moscow region, where different varieties of honeys are refined, blended and packed for retail and industrial customers.



Installation of new beeswax processing and beeswax foundations production lines was completed.

In 2007 IBO has launched a project to build a brand new honey/pollen/propolis processing & packing facility a hundred miles away from Moscow.




It will be a plant with up to date technologies, specially designed to comply with national and EU sanitary/hygienic requirements.
