In 1998, Mr. Laszlo Péter established Golya Bt., a company that focuses on the poultry and egg industry. From the start the company has been part of the Moba family, representing Moba as an agent in Hungary. When Mr. Péter died suddenly in 2004, his daughter Mrs. Mónika Péter took over the company. At the time, she was not familiar with the egg industry, but with the trust and professional support of Moba and with significant effort, Golya Bt. has grown into a strong business.
For many years now, the Hungarian market has used predominantly Moba machines.
Moba's presence in Hungary
Hungary is a country in Eastern Europe with almost 10 million inhabitants and an overall egg consumption of around 2.3 billion eggs per year. Half of the annual egg production (approx. 1.2 billion) comes from large-scale production, around 30% results from small-scale farming and 20% is imported. The Hungarian market depends very much on subsidies. With a few exceptions, most of the machines have been sold with EU subsidy financing since Hungary became part of the EU.
A large number of Hungarian egg producers have put their trust in Moba, according to Mónika: "For many years now, the Hungarian market has used predominantly Moba machines. For a long time, the installed base consisted of more than twenty automatic grading and packing machines — complemented by various hand packers — ranging from the Prima2000 to an Omnia250. The latter was purchased by our customer Farm Tojas and that machine was the biggest egg grader in Hungary until 2020, when our customer PLG invested in an Omnia FT500 and our customer Szijarto ordered an Omnia PX530, including Moba robotics. This is a great achievement that we have accomplished thanks to the strong cooperation with Moba."
The phrase "Moba family" is often mentioned among colleagues and agents and I could not agree more that the atmosphere and the team spirit reflect this. This family atmosphere is clear at the exhibitions and the organized business meetings.
Representing the Moba brand
For over twenty years now, Golya Bt. has been successfully representing Moba in Hungary. "Currently, I am actively involved in the business with strong support from Moba. Service used to be provided by Firma Grejan as a contracted partner of Moba. Now, this is organized from the Netherlands, with partly local/regional support from Mr. Kristian Steiner and Mr. Arnold Füri among others. Our customer base is happy with the level of equipment and service they receive from us. HelpDesk, aftersales service and a local presence, which gives us a significant advantage compared to our competitors, are much appreciated by our customers. And we are constantly looking for ways to support our customers further, such as by updating their plants periodically with the latest Moba innovations. We have achieved some greenfield projects as well."
"I have to say that working with Moba for the past fifteen years has been a pleasure, and I truly appreciate the cooperation. Yes, Moba’s processes have changed over the years and became more complex due to the significant growth of the company, but we have adapted along the way. The phrase "Moba family" is often mentioned among colleagues and agents and I could not agree more that the atmosphere and the team spirit reflect this. This family atmosphere is clear at the exhibitions and the organized business meetings. The Moba team will always go the extra mile. I especially appreciate the extra support from the Sales team to run the public e-procurement procedures successfully, which require additional declarations and significant administration tasks. Without the support of Moba, I wouldn't be able to provide the Hungarian egg market with top-quality machinery."
