In February 2019, Mr. Sandor from Hungary sent an inquiry to Newidea. His friend wanted a fully animal feed packaging line. Mr.Sandor is doing CNC lathes business,since his friend wanted to buy a fully automatic feed production line, he contacted with us. His friend’s company is a well-known animal feed company in Hungary, which provides feed to the Hungary and neighboring countries’ markets .
