SocTrade

Since 2003, SocTrade has been supplying Ukraine with high-quality, modern laboratory equipment, addressing a wide range of analytical and research challenges.

SocTrade’s Core Activities:

  • Supply of laboratory equipment
  • Methodological consulting
  • Training for laboratory specialists
  • Warranty and post-warranty service

Originally founded as a Swedish-Ukrainian company, SocTrade became fully Ukrainian-owned in 2021 when its Swedish co-founder transferred his share. Despite this transition, the company has maintained its European, Swedish-style approach to business, partnerships, and commitments.

Its headquarters is in Odesa, with sales and service offices in Kyiv, Zaporizhzhia, and Mykolaiv. The company provides nationwide service support and operates its own warehouse and a Demonstration & Consultation Center in Odesa, where hands-on training on equipment operation is conducted.

More than 400 companies across Ukraine rely on SocTrade’s advanced solutions for quality control. To date, the company has installed over 1,100 pieces of specialized equipment. SocTrade’s clients include:

  • Agricultural and food industry enterprises: grain traders, large agricultural holdings, flour mills, farms, dairy processors, and producers of baked goods and confectionery.
  • Energy, petrochemical, and gas industries: oil and gas refineries, major fuel traders, and manufacturers of lubricants and industrial oils.
  • Industrial and commercial laboratories: research institutions, certification centers, municipal services, and inspection companies.

SocTrade provides turnkey equipment solutions, which extend beyond procurement, customs clearance, and timely delivery. The company offers a full-service package, including installation, calibration, preventive maintenance, and warranty servicing. A critical aspect of its work is methodological support—customizing equipment settings, developing analytical methods, and training personnel to ensure optimal performance.

This comprehensive client support model is unique to the Ukrainian market.
