Austrian company RWA (Raiffeisen Ware Austria) embarked on a transformative journey with Cimbria a decade ago. As the Serbian market flourished into a pivotal growth area, RWA made a strategic investment decision to create their own seed and food processing facilities in Serbia. The outcome? To create state-of-the-art processing plants—focusing on precision and top-quality product output—built in collaboration with Cimbria. The latest plant is in Serbia, nestled in the heart of the Vojvodina region, where black soil reigns supreme. This groundbreaking facility, with an investment of over EUR 6 million, is poised to redefine seed and food processing.
The Unveiled Groundbreaking Plant
At the core of RWA Serbia lies a clear vision: to process seeds with unwavering precision, ensuring uncompromising quality, purity, and growth. Our mission was equally resolute: supply a plant that met RWA’s exacting standards. Designed to handle a diverse range of crops—including cereals (wheat, barley, rye, triticale), rapeseed, legumes (soybeans, peas), corn, and sunflower seeds—the facility boasts impressive capabilities. With a capacity to handle 15 t/h of cereals, 10 t/h of legumes and corn, and 5 t/h of sunflower seeds, RWA Serbia stands as a game-changer in the industry.
Cimbria Complete: Providing a full Processing line of Machinery
Cimbria, together with RWA Serbia, created an innovative processing line with our state-of-the-art reliable machinery. The Processing Line has an array of cutting-edge Cimbria equipment, each meticulously crafted to elevate RWA Serbia’s seed and food processing:

- Pendulum Bucket Elevators PBE 20: Efficient vertical conveying, gently and efficiently lifting seeds toward their destiny.
- Belt Conveyors GT 400 & 500: Seamless and gentle material transport, connecting the machinery across the processing line.

Our Serbian agent, Seedtech d.o.o., handled mechanical and electrical installation, as well as steel platforms. Together, we ensured the efficiency and excellence of the complete plant set-up.
Opening Ceremony
In the beginning of June of 2024, RWA Serbia hosted the opening ceremony for this Plant, which was nothing short of spectacular. During the live presentation, Mr. Goran Ristić, Head of Seed Processing at RWA Serbia, took center stage. He unveiled the entire processing plant, introducing each Cimbria machine—a symphony of technology and vision. Key project stakeholders, including Cimbria, stood tall, exchanging glass trophies as a symbol of gratitude and partnership. Meanwhile, a lively band played sensational music, blending international hits with Balkan tunes, as seeds swayed and dreams took flight.
This project exemplifies RWA’s commitment to quality, growth, and innovation. And for Cimbria, it’s more than machines—it’s about sowing the seeds of progress with an Expert at your side.
