Avesterra Group, an agricultural holding owned by former Ukrainian politicians Mykhailo and Dmytro Dobkin, plans a large-scale expansion of its poultry business in Volyn region, increasing the capacity of its broiler farm more than fivefold — from 2.3 million to 12.4 million chickens per year.
This is stated in the planned activity notice of LUTSK AGRICULTURAL COMPANY LLC, which is part of the holding’s structure.
The existing poultry farm is located in the village of Kohylne, Volodymyr district, Volyn region. The enterprise currently occupies 7.6 hectares and includes 12 poultry houses and auxiliary infrastructure. Its current production capacity is up to 2.3 million broilers per year.
