"The company purchased a linear type elevator complex in the Lviv region. The grain warehouse is designed to work with all grain and oil crops grown by the company. The elevator's one-time storage capacity is 120 thousand tons, of which 77 thousand tons are stored in metal silos, and 43 thousand tons — in prefabricated reinforced concrete silos and warehouses," the message says.
Thus, according to the report, the total volume of all storage capacities of Continental Farmers Group increased to 634 thousand tons.
The company also owns elevator capacities in the Ternopil and Ivano-Frankivsk regions.
At the same time, with the purchase of an elevator in the Lviv region, the company also got the opportunity to provide third-party consignors with a set of services for receiving grain, determining its quantity and quality, bringing it up to condition and contractual indicators, storage and shipment for road and rail transport.
"With the acquisition of this object, we were also able to significantly optimize our logistics: the new elevator is located near a large railway hub and has the ability to ship up to 45 wagons of grain per day by rail. The elevator complex is modern, multifunctional and fully automated, so we did not incur unnecessary costs for modernization or additional equipment, which is also important," said Georg von Nolken, CEO of Continental Farmers Group.
