Rostyslav Vovk, CEO and Co-owner of Kormotech, joined the panel discussion “Anti-Investment and Family Business: Where Not to Invest and How to Build Wealth Across Generations.” Together with other participants, he discussed long-term business decisions, investment strategies, and the principles behind building a strong family-owned company.

CLUB 4 PAWS, Kormotech’s premium pet food brand for cats and dogs, has updated the recipe and shape of the pieces in its wet food. To make the product even more appealing to pets, the brand is introducing not only a new, more natural-looking shape but also an improved recipe.
