An operating production and cold-storage complex designed for the industrial freezing, storage and preparation of vegetables, fruits and berries is offered for sale.
The complex includes a cold-storage facility with a one-time storage capacity of approximately 5,000 tonnes and production facilities with freezing capacity of up to 10 tonnes per hour, equivalent to approximately 30,000 tonnes per year when operating in one shift.
The company specializes in freezing green peas, sweet corn, cauliflower, broccoli and onions. Its technological capabilities also allow it to process peppers, eggplants, fruits and berries, including toll-processing arrangements and private label production.
Production Capacity
The complex includes:
- a 5,000-tonne cold-storage facility;
- a production workshop for freezing vegetables, fruits and berries;
- 2 Unidex (Poland) quick-freezing tunnels;
- total freezing capacity of up to 10 tonnes/hour;
- equipment for receiving and primary preparation of raw materials manufactured in Slovakia, France, the Netherlands, Belgium and the United States;
- Grasso (Germany) compressor equipment;
- laboratory;
- weighbridge and raw-material receiving area;
- administrative premises;
- compressor room;
- warehouse equipment and electric forklifts;
- vehicle garages.
Finished products are stored in the company’s own cold-storage chambers at temperatures not exceeding –18 °C.
Energy Infrastructure
The company has its own 2.1 MW transformer substation.
In 2025, a new gas-fired boiler house was commissioned, with investment of approximately $500,000, according to the seller’s materials.
The possibility of installing the following has also been assessed:
- approximately 1 MW of solar generation on rooftops and available land;
- up to 5 MW of energy storage systems.
Implementation of the energy project could significantly reduce the company’s electricity costs.
Products and Sales Markets
The main production categories include:
- green peas;
- sweet corn;
- cauliflower;
- broccoli;
- onions;
- other vegetables;
- fruits and berries.
Products can be packed in 25 kg bags, 10 kg boxes or 2.5 kg packs for subsequent sale to B2B customers, processors and manufacturers of frozen food products.
The company has experience exporting products to EU countries, Turkey and Israel. The seller’s materials also indicate ISO and Halal certifications.
Operating Performance and Development Potential
The company’s revenue in the 2024/2025 financial year amounted to approximately UAH 124 million. Current production capacity utilization is estimated at approximately 20–25%, creating significant potential to increase output without the need for major expansion of the core technological base.
Approximately €12 million has been invested in the fixed assets of the cold-storage and production complex.
Potential Asset Use Models
The complex may be of interest to:
- producers and traders of frozen vegetables, fruits and berries;
- agricultural holdings planning vertical integration;
- food manufacturers and private label producers;
- distributors of frozen products;
- cold-storage operators;
- investors focused on cold storage and food processing.
In addition to developing its own production, the asset can be used as a cold-storage logistics complex providing storage and freezing services to third-party companies.
According to calculations provided by the seller, if the cold-storage facility is used primarily for third-party storage services, potential net profit could amount to approximately $900,000 per year, while a combined model — cold storage plus own production — has the potential to generate higher profitability.
