Welcome to Trigon Agri
Trigon Agri A/S is an integrated soft commodities producer (operating commercial cereals and dairy farms), storage provider and trader with operations in Ukraine, Russia and Estonia. The Group was established in May 2006 by the asset- and private equity management company Trigon Capital to invest in the agricultural sectors of Ukraine, Russia and Estonia.
As of April 2008, Trigon Agri had approximately 120,600 hectares of land under control in Russia, Ukraine and Estonia. Out of the total land area under control approximately 116,600 hectares was located in the Black Earth regions of Ukraine and Russia, an area known for the very high fertility of its soil and historically commonly referred to as the ‘bread-basket’ of Europe. Additionally, as of April 2008 the Group owned five separate rail-road connected grain storage elevators near its production operations in Ukraine with a total grain storage capacity of 322,000 tonnes. By 2010 Trigon Agri has a strategic goal of having up to 450,000 hectares of land under control mainly through the expansion of its six geographic farming unit clusters in Kharkov and Kirovograd in the Ukraine, Penza and Samara in southern Russia, the St Petersburg region of Russia (dairy farming), and Estonia (dairy farming), and ownership of sufficient storage capacity to support production.
In April 2008 Trigon Agri A/S signed a Joint Venture Agreement with Ramburs Group (internationally known as United Grain) for the establishment of a soft commodities trading and storage management company to be named Ramburs Trigon (with Trigon Agri owning 51%). The new company will source and store soft commodities in the Ukraine and Russia selling to clients globally. The creation of Ramburs Trigon constitutes an exciting development for Trigon Agri and supports the Group’s strategy to be an integrated cereals production, storage and trading firm. Trigon Agri farms land under its own control in Ukraine, Russia and Estonia, has the security of its wholly owned storage facilities and can execute deliveries to end customers worldwide.
