creativity and a degree of flexibility to figure out the best answer . Sometimes we work with a partner to develop the right solution , like we did recently in Sweden .

“ Our production flexibility is quite unique to the industry ,” he continues . “ We have a broad portfolio that we produce ourselves , but we also have the necessary skills to act as an integrator . We can adjust our products to meet demand and deliver projects with key partners that wouldn ’ t otherwise be possible .”
As political and social unrest gathers traction across the globe , more countries are increasingly concerned about national food supply . With grain storage being one of Cimbria ’ s key sectors , the business is ideally positioned to serve such market demands .
“ Recent events have certainly shown the importance of a stable food supply infrastructure to global food security . We ’ ve been involved in some critical projects in this area . One of our recent landmark projects was an order for delivery of 23 grain silo plants to Egypt , which is the largest in our history and estimated to be the world ’ s largest order for grain silos from a single company ,” Thomas reveals . “ Its total storage capacity will be 1.38 million tons and require 900 shipments from our plant in Denmark .
“ Over the last 30 years , we ’ ve been involved with several infrastructure projects across Egypt to improve process and storage yield for both imported and domestic grain . We ’ re currently building a large port facility there and applying AI and other technologies to other locations .
“ In terms of food security , our solutions not only help with food supply , but also help limit waste from harvesting or transport ,” he continues . “ While we ’ ve worked with the Egyptian Government to establish storage sites , we ’ ve also created a training and testing facility to educate local operators about the correct operation of the facility in terms of both maintenance and safekeeping of grains .”
