Austrian Investor Launches Elevator and Feed Mill in Cherkasy Region

Agro Plus 2006 invests UAH 90 million in modern agri-infrastructure, opening new opportunities for Ukrainian farmers and export growth

New Elevator and Feed Mill in Central Ukraine

An Austrian investor, Thomas Bruner, has officially launched an elevator complex (15,000-ton capacity) and a modern feed mill in the Cherkasy region through his company Agro Plus 2006.

  • The elevator is already receiving barley and wheat, with sunflower and corn to be added soon.

  • The project creates a reliable logistics hub for farmers, improving post-harvest storage and feed production.

  • Total investment: ~UAH 90 million (approx. €2.1 million).


Partnership with Ukrainian Farmers

The model is not just about infrastructure — it’s about integrating small and medium-sized farmers into stable value chains:

  • Over 80 farms will be involved in the program.

  • Farmers can join pig-fattening projects without large upfront investments.

  • Agro Plus 2006 guarantees service support and market-price sales, ensuring predictable income.

This cooperative format mirrors European integration practices and allows local producers to plug into export-oriented supply chains.
