In the 2000s, the company expanded its exports to include Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Cambodia, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, Bosnia Herzegovina, and Turkey. It also acquired companies in the Netherlands, Germany, Czech Republic, Sweden, Italy, Brazil, India, the UK, Denmark, and Switzerland, and obtained shares in a Japanese company.

In the subsequent years and up to the present day, the company has focused on making large investments and acquisitions. This includes multiple acquisitions in Australia, Brazil, England, Spain, Germany, South Africa, and the UAE.
