Agroenergy Group plans to implement a project in the Kyiv region to build a deep-processing plant for yellow peas with a total cost of $24.2 million, of which $20.6 million is expected to be raised through financing.
According to the Ukraine Investment Guide 2026, presented at the Ukraine Recovery Conference 2026 (URC2026) in Gdańsk, the plant will have a design capacity of 35,000 metric tons of yellow peas per year.
Once operational, the plant will produce approximately 8,800 metric tons of protein concentrate, 22,000 metric tons of pea starch, as well as pea flour, fiber, and other processed products. The primary target markets are Ukraine, European Union countries, the United States, and Canada.
The catalog states that the project is based on “dry” fractionation technology and involves the creation of a vertically integrated complex that will cover the full cycle of raw material processing and the production of five types of value-added products.
A preliminary feasibility study has already been completed, and the project is ready for implementation. The payback period is 6.5 years at an IRR of 18.3%. The estimated project implementation period is two years.
