Modern seed processing plant has been built in Volyn region

To mark its 25th anniversary, Volyn-Zerno-Produkt LLC (Vilia trademark) launched a seed processing plant with a capacity of up to 12 metric tons per hour in the village of Zvynyache, Lutsk District, Volyn region.

“The new complex, with a capacity of up to 12 metric tons per hour, was created to meet the holding company’s internal needs for seed and to reduce dependence on external suppliers. The project was implemented using technological solutions from the British company Perry and the Danish manufacturer Westrup,” according to a post by Perry on Facebook.

According to the company, the complex provides a full cycle of seed processing, including raw material intake, cleaning, grading, gravity and optical separation, seed treatment, drying, and shipment of finished products. The level of automation allows for up to six processing operations to be performed simultaneously in continuous mode.

It is noted that the complex’s conveyor systems are designed to minimize mechanical impact on the seeds and preserve their germination characteristics.

“Volyn-Zerno-Produkt” was founded in 2001. The company is engaged in grain processing and is part of the “Vilia” agricultural group, which is involved in crop and livestock production, cultivates 19.5 thousand hectares of land, and owns seven grain elevators in the Volyn and Rivne regions.

“Vilia” produces flour, cereals, milk, and meat, and also sells micronutrient fertilizers from the companies “Quantum” and “Reacom.”

In June 2023, Volyn-Zerno-Produkt LLC launched a flour mill with a capacity of 120 metric tons per day for grain processing.

According to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities and Individuals (USR), the ultimate beneficiary of “Volyn-Zerno-Produkt” is Yevhen Dudka.

According to information from YouControl, the company’s revenue in 2025 decreased by 4.8%—to 8 billion 495.3 million UAH—while net profit fell 11.5-fold—to 17.8 million UAH.
