Member Introduction: Ukrainian Hemp®

We are pleased to welcome Ukrainian Hemp® as a new member of the Czech-Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce.

Founded in the Cherkasy region in 2021, Ukrainian Hemp® is a Ukrainian enterprise active in agri-tech and manufacturing. Since its establishment, the company has demonstrated remarkable resilience. Despite the challenges caused by the full-scale invasion, it has continued to grow and has recently launched a new production plant, underlining its determination, long-term vision, and commitment to development in Ukraine.

Ukrainian Hemp® specializes in the cultivation, production, and processing of industrial hemp, creating a wide portfolio of raw materials with more than 1,000 applications across industries such as textiles, automotive, paper and packaging, construction, and food. The company operates a fully integrated end-to-end supply chain, covering genetics selection, cultivation, harvesting, and both primary and secondary processing. Its core products include hemp fiber, hemp shive, and hemp seed in both food and feed grades.

In addition to its core business, Ukrainian Hemp® is also a pioneer in the development of industrial hemp-processing equipment, including the HempMax-1000, an automatic decortication line designed for industrial-scale hemp processing.

Innovation plays an important role in the company’s development. In cooperation with its German partner PAPACKS, Ukrainian Hemp® has developed HempPulp®, an innovative hemp-based cellulose material created for direct use in the paper and packaging industries. In 2025, the company also launched Hemsta®, a new division focused on sustainable building materials, including building blocks and prefabricated modules. This initiative contributes to the sustainable reconstruction of Ukraine by promoting healthy homes built from natural materials.

Since 2024, Ukrainian Hemp® has also become an important export-oriented player, with more than 70% of its production supplied to international markets. In close cooperation with its Czech partner Hempoint, the company delivers substantial volumes of hemp products across the European Union.

For Ukrainian Hemp®, the Czech Republic has become a strategic hub. It offers a strong logistics position in Central Europe, one of the most favorable regulatory environments for industrial hemp in Europe, and a business culture that is close to Ukraine’s, making cooperation efficient, transparent, and sustainable.

Today, Ukrainian Hemp® is focused on strengthening its operations in Ukraine and unlocking further growth potential. Its priorities include expanding cultivation areas through new partnerships, increasing production capacity through automation and digitalization, and building long-term strategic partnerships with European counterparts.

We are proud to welcome Ukrainian Hemp® to our Chamber community and look forward to supporting its future growth and Czech-Ukrainian cooperation.
