Stolychnyi Mlyn LLC shipped 504 tonnes of flour to Syria under the Grain from Ukraine initiative

Stolychnyi Mlyn LLC, a long-standing member of the Union Millers of Ukraine, has shipped 504 tonnes of wheat flour to Syria under the humanitarian initiative Grain from Ukraine. The programme was launched in 2022 by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyyto strengthen Ukraine’s role in addressing the global food crisis. The programme is implemented by the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP).

For the company, participation in the programme represents an opportunity to contribute to an international food assistance effort while once again demonstrating the capacity of Ukrainian producers to supply high-quality products to global markets.

Stolychnyi Mlyn is one of Ukraine’s major flour producers, supplying products to bakeries and confectionery manufacturers in Kyiv and other regions of the country. The company’s facilities include three mills equipped with upgraded processing equipment, two grain elevators with storage capacities of 32,000 and 43,000 tonnes, an in-house logistics fleet, and two flour packaging lines operating on Italian and German equipment. Annual grain intake at the enterprise averages 220,000–240,000 tonnes, while yearly shipments of finished products exceed 140,000 tonnes. The company’s production complies with Ukrainian national standard DSTU 46.004-99, ISO 9001:2008 and HACCP quality standards.

Launched in 2022 as a humanitarian initiative of Ukraine, the Grain from Ukraine programme has since delivered more than 324,000 tonnes of agricultural commodities—including wheat, flour, maize, peas and vegetable oil—to 19 countries in Africa and Asia. In early March 2026, the initiative was expanded into Food from Ukraine. The new phase envisages a gradual transition from exporting raw commodities toward developing a network of international agri-food hubs in countries across Africa and the Middle East.
