The Governor of the Ryazan Region visited the Agropromkomplektatsiya Group of Companies, where construction of new production assets for the group of companies continues.

Sergey Novikov, CEO of Agropromkomplektatsiya Group, and Pavel Malkov, Governor of the Ryazan Region, assessed the progress of current investment projects . They visited the Poplevinsky and Molovsky pig farms, which will deliver the first batch of commercial pigs by the end of the year.

In Ryazhsk, Sergei Novikov and Pavel Malkov visited the grain elevator, which the Group of Companies is rapidly reconstructing and modernizing.

Next to the existing elevator, Agropromkomplektatsiya is building its fifth feed mill and the first in its Ryazan division. Its production capacity will be 40 tons per hour or 300,000 tons per year.

Following the inspection, Sergei Novikov and Pavel Malkov discussed the progress of the Group's investment projects.

"The investment climate in the Ryazan region is attractive to the Group of Companies. We maintain an open and productive dialogue with the regional government. We are systematically expanding our presence in the region, developing fallow lands, developing pig farming, and constructing high-tech pig farms that already employ over 200 people. We are increasing production volumes and building a feed mill, which will become a key link in the production chain from field to fork. And all of this has become possible thanks to the effective collaboration of local authorities and businesses," emphasized Sergey Novikov, owner and CEO of Agropromkomplektatsiya Group of Companies.

Agropromkomplektatsiya plans to build and launch three more modern pig farms. This is a promising area for expanding pig exports to Southeast Asian countries.

"The investment project is progressing well. A great deal of work has been accomplished over the past year , and it continues at several sites. The complex in the Ryazhsky District is in its final stages; the equipment has been delivered. It should reach its planned production volumes this year. I thank Sergey Anatolyevich and the Agropromkomplektatsiya Group of Companies for their productive collaboration. A full-cycle production process is being created, from feed cultivation to finished products. This means new products , new modern facilities, and high-paying jobs. This is the forward movement that is needed today in the Ryazan Region's agriculture sector," said Governor Pavel Malkov.

The comprehensive implementation of Agropromkomplektatsiya Group's investment projects is planned for five years and will be completed in 2028. Investment volume in 2023-2024 amounts to 13 billion rubles.
