“Lubnymash” (Poltava Oblast), a manufacturer of grain elevators and related equipment, has begun construction of a 6,000-square-meter production complex, which will allow it to nearly double its total storage capacity to over 1 million metric tons of grain per year, said Dmytro Kysilevsky, deputy chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Economic Development.
“The new site will produce large-capacity silos—up to 50,000 cubic meters. Investment in the new project totals $2 million,” he wrote on Facebook on Thursday, adding that the plant in Lubny currently produces silos with a total storage capacity of up to 600,000 metric tons of grain annually.
Kisilevsky noted that the company secured additional investment resources through its participation in a program that reimburses 25% of the cost of Ukrainian agricultural machinery products.
According to the MP, in 2025, the “Lubnymash” plant produced grain storage facilities, silos, and grain bunkers worth over 1 billion hryvnias. The products are exported to European Union markets, and the African market holds great promise for the Ukrainian manufacturer.
The company employs 420 people.
Kysilevsky noted that the program to compensate farmers for 25% of the cost of Ukrainian agricultural machinery—part of the “Made in Ukraine” policy to support Ukrainian manufacturers—was in effect from 2017 to 2022 and was subsequently reinstated starting in 2024.
The 2026 state budget allocates 1.8 billion hryvnias for this program.
According to information on its website, “Lubnymash” is one of the leading companies in the design and manufacture of equipment for grain and grain products. It produces metal silos, grain dryers, conveyors, bucket elevators, and metal structures.
According to data from YouControl, in January–March of this year, the plant increased its net profit 3.3-fold compared to the same period in 2025—to 13.2 million UAH—as net revenue grew 3.4-fold to 288.4 million UAH.
