Frozen berry exporter West Berry launches new processing facility in Lviv region
West Berry LLC (Drohobych, Lviv region), one of Ukraine's leading exporters of frozen berries, has launched a new production facility equipped with modern sorting lines, processing equipment, and shock-freezing tunnels, the Drohobych City Council reported.
The new 10,000-square-meter facility was constructed in six months. The project includes two shock-freezing tunnels with a combined capacity of 7 tonnes per hour (3.5 tonnes each) and six storage chambers for finished products.
"Our goal is to ensure a full production cycle, from growing and harvesting berries to freezing and selling finished products on European markets," said company director Volodymyr Samborsky.
The company is currently completing the outfitting of office space, a cafeteria, and a modern bomb shelter at the facility.
In 2025, West Berry became a recipient of a $150,000 grant under a program implemented by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the European Union, which helped accelerate the launch of the new production lines.
West Berry LLC was founded in 2016 and specializes in the procurement and freezing of wild and cultivated berries, including sea buckthorn, currants, blueberries, raspberries, elderberries, and others. Its products are exported to Germany, Italy, France, Poland, and the Baltic states.
