About our company - History
In 1991, with a vision and a passion for agriculture, Leonid Langer founded Agrar-Pro Odessa. Little did he know that his venture would grow into a global powerhouse in the grain production and export industry. Today, with over 30 years of experience, the company stands tall, producing and exporting an impressive 10 million tons of grain annually and boasting a net worth of over 300 million dollars. Our company is one of the largest producers and exporters in Ukraine.
Leonid Langer's journey began with a simple dream - to cultivate the fertile Ukrainian soil and share its bounty with the world. Armed with determination, hard work, and an unwavering commitment to quality, he planted the seeds of his company in the rich agricultural landscapes of Ukraine.
From day one, Agrar-Pro Odessa was built on a foundation of excellence. Leonid's dedication to best agricultural practices, cutting-edge technology, and responsible stewardship of the land set the company apart. This commitment quickly translated into superior cereal crops that met the highest global standards.
In the pursuit of excellence, Agrar-Pro Odessa has always embraced innovation and sustainability. The company invests heavily in research and development to optimize crop yields, reduce environmental impact, and adapt to changing global agricultural trends. This commitment ensures that the company remains at the forefront of the industry.
