New Suziria Group Plant: Capacities and Prospects
Currently, imported pet products account for about 66% of the market in Ukraine. The commissioning of the new plant in Kalush will allow Suziria Group to cover up to 15% of the domestic market for wet animal food. The projected annual capacity of the facility is approximately 66,000 tons. As of today, the plant is capable of producing up to 5,000 tons of products per year, with plans to increase production to 10,000 tons by the end of the current year.
Strategic Development of the Production Network
The newly opened plant is already the third production facility of Suziria Group in Kalush. The first site, which produces grain-based feeds and treats, began operations in September 2022, while the second, specializing in meat treats, was launched in November 2023. In addition to the facilities in Kalush, the company has production capacities in Kharkiv. Importantly, Suziria Group plans not only to produce products under its own brands but also to manufacture goods for partner companies.
Investing in our own production is a strategic step for business stability and reducing import dependence.
Suziria Group’s products are already exported to 13 countries, indicating the strengthening of the Ukrainian manufacturer’s position in the international market.
