Agricultural holding IMK has purchased 75 grain trucks using a loan from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, the company’s CEO Oleksandr Verzhikhovsky announced during a speech at the Grain Ukraine 2026 international conference on Thursday in Kyiv.
“We have strengthened our road logistics component, secured $13 million in financing from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and purchased 75 grain trucks,” Verzhikhovsky said.
The head of the agricultural holding noted that starting in 2023, the company has been investing approximately $10 million annually in the modernization of equipment and production. In particular, the greatest attention is being paid to logistics.
Given that the company conducts all its exports by rail through deep-water Black Sea ports, in 2024–2025 it implemented its own project to purchase 300 grain railcars. The company’s investment in this project amounted to $22 million.
“This was the right decision, as it currently yields annual savings of about $3–4 million,” emphasized the head of the agricultural holding.
A presentation on the AMK website with data for May of this year indicates that its logistics fleet includes 129 grain trucks, 300 grain railcars, 672 units of agricultural machinery, and 326 other vehicles.
The IMK agricultural holding is an integrated group of companies operating in the Sumy, Poltava, and Chernihiv regions (northern and central Ukraine) in the crop production, grain elevators, and warehousing segments. Land bank: 115,000 hectares; storage capacity: 554,000 tons; grain and oilseed production in 2025: 838,000 tons.
IMK’s net profit in 2025 increased by 24% to $67.5 million, while consolidated revenue decreased by 10% to $190.5 million.
