Translation services for the agri-food sector
The agri-food industry is one of the biggest exporters in France and Europe.
As such, stakeholders in the agri-food production and distribution sector have highly international business activities and face translation challenges on a daily basis: organising translation production,managing and distributing translated content in a culturally sensitive way and ensuring accuracy and precision given the regulatory requirements imposed on products.
Translation is a major challenge for companies seeking to promote their products in all markets and win over new consumers.
The importance of localisation for marketing content
When an agri-food company wants to establish itself in a foreign market, it has to communicate effectively with local consumers. This includes translating all marketing content, such as websites, social media content and product data sheets for distributors. High-quality translation is essential in order to convey the company’s key messages and highlight the features and benefits of its food products.
In a B2C communications world where content is growing exponentially, Orkera is on hand to help you leverage emerging technologies to generate and translate this content while ensuring accurate and attractive translations for your consumers.

FAQs
What file formats can you handle?
Orkera can handle most file formats containing formatted or unformatted text. Besides common file formats (MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint), we also handle specific publishing formats (InDesign, Publisher, AutoCAD, etc.) and data exchange formats (JSON, xlf, xml, etc.).
How much does a translation cost?
Our translation pricing system is based on the number of words contained in the source documents. We reduce the cost of translations with our CAT software, which uses translation memories to avoid re-translating previously translated content and detects repetitions within and between files. This allows us to offer you shorter turnaround times and consistent translations. For our regular clients, we use translation memories as a reference for every new order. Prices also depend on the chosen translation solution, which is tailored to the content and use context.
How do you ensure the confidentiality of your translations?
All confidential documents entrusted to us are protected by professional secrecy as defined in Article 226-13 of the French Criminal Code, as well as by the commitments enshrined in Orkera’s General Terms and Conditions of Sale. To back up these commitments, we sign specific confidentiality agreements with our clients on request.
How can I reduce my translation costs?
You can take several steps to reduce your translation costs:
– Prepare your documents so they’re fully editable – translating PDF documents is more expensive because they need to be reformatted first.
– Entrust the translation to a language service provider that manages translation memories for you and allows you to recycle previous translations.
– Select translation solutions and their level of accuracy according to the document’s intended use.
Which languages do you translate?
We translate from and into more than 60 languages.
We cover all European languages as well as the main languages of international communication. Most of the projects we handle for our clients are multilingual translations of documents, websites or videos from and into several languages at once.
How much time does a translation take?
Translation speed depends directly on the complexity of the source text and the translation solution used.
Depending on the quality required and the length of the documents to translate, the turnaround time could be anything from 24h (e.g. for a 2- to 4-page document) to several days. Whatever the content format and expected quality level, our quotes systematically state the time required for the translation.
Translation turnaround times are given in the presentation of our solutions. Then there’s the time it takes for any page layout adjustments or approval of the insertion of translations into a website or software interface.
