PrJSC ‘Vinnitsa Oil Seeds Crushing Factory’ has become the first manufacturer in Ukraine to be awarded EFISC-GTP certification by Guard Is Certification

It is with great pride and pleasure that we announce this exceptional achievement, which marks a new chapter in the history of the international processing sector. Vinnitsa Oil Seeds Crushing Factory PrJSC has successfully passed a comprehensive certification audit and received the prestigious certificate of compliance with the European EFISC-GTP standard as a manufacturer.
This success is the result of a long-standing strategic partnership between the authoritative certification body Guard is Certification and its long-term partner in Ukraine.
EFISC-GTP (European Feed and Food Ingredients Safety Certification) is Europe’s leading certification scheme for safety and good practice for manufacturers of food and feed ingredients. The standard combines the most stringent requirements for product safety management (including HACCP principles), supply chain transparency, sustainable development and full traceability at every stage — from the processing of raw materials to the dispatch of the finished product to end customers.
Why is this achievement so significant, and what does this certificate offer?
Being a trailblazer in EFISC-GTP certification in Ukraine as a manufacturer is not only a great honour but, above all, a powerful competitive advantage on the international stage. Achieving this status opens up key strategic opportunities for the company:
• Unrestricted access to EU markets: Holding an EFISC-GTP certificate is a critical requirement and serves as an official ‘pass’ for supplying products to leading European companies, which impose uncompromising safety requirements on feed and food ingredients.
• Confirmation of the highest safety standards: The standard guarantees full transparency of production processes, effective risk management and European-standard quality of manufactured products.
• Strengthening our leadership position: Our status as the first certified manufacturer in Ukraine clearly demonstrates to the market that the company is capable of dynamic growth, maintaining the highest standards and implementing global best practices, even in the current challenging and demanding environment.
• Increased trust from international business partners: The certificate is a globally recognised symbol of reliability, transparency and advanced systems management.
Certification at this level is always the result of synergy, a high level of professionalism and the tremendous commitment of the entire team. The special contribution and daily hard work of the project’s key leaders were the main driving force behind this success:
• Oksana Nekh – our heartfelt thanks for her impeccable precision, deep understanding of standards and immense contribution to building a reliable and uncompromising safety system at the plant.
• Lyudmyla Muzyka – our sincere appreciation for her clear coordination of processes, her leadership and her remarkable ability to maintain focus on the ultimate goal throughout the entire lengthy preparation period.
• Vasyl Bondar – many thanks for your outstanding technical expertise, resilience and consummate professionalism at every stage of this complex project, as well as for building and leading such a strong team.
The Guard is Certification team is proud to be able to walk this path of development and innovation alongside PrJSC ‘Vinnitsa Oil Seeds Crushing Factory’. This certification has officially confirmed the company’s status as a market leader, whose products fully comply with the highest international standards.
We wish the factory stable and dynamic growth, the conquest of new promising markets, reliable partners and continued success. This certificate is your well-deserved joint victory!
We warmly congratulate you on receiving the EFISC-GTP certificate! Together towards new European heights!
