TAD has completed construction of a new complex for the production of special trailers for transporting oversized cargo in Volochysk (Khmelnytskyi region), which will enable it to double its production volumes, according to Dmytro Kysilevsky, deputy chairman of the parliamentary committee on economic development.
“The new production complex covers an area of 8,000 square meters and will create 250 additional jobs. The investment in the new production complex amounted to $8 million. This project will enable TAD to launch the production of a new type of product—modular special trailers,” he wrote on Facebook on Thursday.
He recalled that TAD specializes in the transportation of oversized cargo and the production of special trailers. TAD trailers have between two and 25 axles with a maximum load of up to 300 tons. The company employs 650 people.
“To attract new employees, TAD has agreed with the Volochysk city authorities to build a residential complex. In particular, the company is recruiting welders, CNC machine operators, and electricians to work at the new production complex,” Kysilevsky said.
He also noted that the company uses, in particular, loans under the “5-7-9” program, and its products are sold with a 15% compensation program for the cost of Ukrainian-made equipment. In addition, the company’s products are subject to localization requirements in public procurement (in 2025 – 25% – IF-U).
TAD (PP Trans-Auto-D), founded in 2006, is a leading manufacturer of special trailers in Ukraine and Eastern Europe, according to its website. It uses components from global manufacturers such as BPW, SAF, WABCO, TRIDEC, Pewag, and Rud.
According to the Clarity Project, in 2024, it increased its net profit by 42.7% compared to 2023, to UAH 51.1 million, with revenue growing by 25.4% to UAH 1.28 billion.
The company is co-owned by two local entrepreneurs, Vitaliy Melnyk (87.5%) and Andriy Babkin (12.5%).
