5 January , 2023  

Prometey Group of Companies during the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine has implemented a number of socially oriented projects to support civilians in Mykolaiv and the region, materially meet the needs of Ukrainian warriors, and for the safety and social security of its employees.
According to a press release of the holding on Wednesday, 8 million UAH were allocated for these purposes, during which dozens of humanitarian projects were implemented.
For example, in December 2022 Prometey allocated funds to the Mykolayiv Regional Military Administration for the purchase of generators for units of the AFU.
As noted, “Prometey” was established in Nikolaev, so the company provides feasible assistance primarily to this city and the Nikolaev region.
“We buy food, medical equipment. Our help is in person, without intermediaries. We ourselves, for example, carried food to the front line of our military. Today, generators are the thing of prime necessity, so we promptly responded to the needs of the military,” the grain trader quotes Raphael Goroyan, head of the holding’s nabs council.
Prometey Group provides services in storing, processing and logistics of crops. Before the Russian aggression the holding owned 34 elevators in the Mykolaiv, Kirovograd, Kiev, Khmelnytsky, Zaporizhzhya, Sumy, Odessa, Kherson and Dnipropetrovsk regions.
By the end of 2021, the group planned to receive $45 mln EBITDA, while in 2020 this figure reached $32.6 mln and in 2019 – $30.5 mln.
