In the midst of the war, Lebanese and Jordanian companies have invested $15M in a farm in the Kyiv region.
The companies are retooling the production facilities at the MP Agro-Trading House in the city of Tarasha, which is engaged in the breeding and harvesting of cattle. The project was implemented after the full-scale invasion began. The new equipment will ensure a full production cycle of semi-finished veal and beef products. The modern, world-class production facilities include a meat processing plant and and 12,000 head of cattle.
As their production processes are compliant with Muslim food standards, the company will be able to export products to Middle Eastern countries. Expanding production capacity will also provide 300 new jobs for the entire region.
Before the start of the war, the company exported cattle through ports by live weight. After the invasion, the business’s owners decided to reformat their activity to meat processing and export of value-added products.
