Great Plains Expands in Ukraine

Great Plains Manufacturing has opened a new facility in Ukraine near Kiev.

The 14,000-square-foot facility includes office and meeting space, a parts warehouse, and a seed laboratory for testing metering systems and seed calibration. The site also includes an exhibition hall and an on-site demonstration field.

“The fertile lands in Ukraine are the envy of many farmers throughout the world,” said export director Tom Bryan, who is stationed in Salina, Kansas. “The Ukrainian farmer has proven that the new farming technologies provided through the innovative products designed and built by Great Plains Manufacturing are capable of producing higher yields. These are the reasons why we consider Ukraine an important market today and for the future.”

Great Plains imported its first equipment into Ukraine in 2004, and positive response led the company to hire its first Ukrainian employee in 2006. In 2008, Great Plains established its Great Plains Ukraine, LLC.
