The year 2000. Valeriy Reutsoy, a graduate of Odesa State Academy of Food Technologies (since 2003 the Academy has got the status of national, ONAFT), is being interviewed by NIBULON’s General Director Oleksiy Vadaturskyy. There is a map of Ukraine in front of him. Valeriy is looking where he, a recent graduate from Odesa, will go to work as an engineer soon. Starobilsk town. Lugansk region. It is here, in Lugansk region, where the future director of the first NIBULON’s elevator of “Reshetylivs’ka” branch will start his career. This recollection of a map and a mark “Starobilsk town” will always remain in his memory. Valeriy Reutsoy knew a lot about NIBULON during his studies in the Academy. A founder and unchangeable NIBULON’s General Director Oleksiy Vadaturskyy got higher education in ONAFT. Since NIBULON’s foundation the whole Academy kept up with the successes of the famous graduate. “NIBULON has strengthened my character”, says Valeriy Reutsoy, “Before construction commencement of the elevator of “Reshetylivs’ka” branch I got an opportunity to work at NIBULON’s branches in Lugansk and Mykolayiv regions. When the management suggested my leading the new elevator, I realized that it was a unique opportunity for me. “The lack of elevator capacities in the region that prevented other enterprises from harvesting a yield in the shortest possible time made NIBULON construct the elevator in Poltava region. Trucks with grain had to stand in queues at the elevators of different companies. At the instance of Poltava companies NIBULON invested funds in the region to create the elevator infrastructure”, tells Valeriy. At present 7 NIBULON’s elevators operate in Poltava region successfully. Construction of “Reshetylivs’ka” branch became a forerunner of the investment program implementation to develop a network of elevator complexes in the region. “Thus, we became pioneers for other elevators of the company”, recollects Iryna Voityuk, a chief accountant of the branch, “When NIBULON came to our district there had already been operating three elevators of other companies in Zhovtneve village. But the local farmers gave preference to our elevator. And now suppliers continue to choose us. They trust and appreciate our honesty and professionalism. Our laboratory is called model. Iryna Voityuk has been working since the branch foundation. Together with Valeriy Reutsoy she was engaged in recruiting, creating staff. “Reshetylivs’ka” branch became the first workplace for the recent graduates. At present a lot of them fill leading positions in other NIBULON’s branches. Oleksandr Gyrka was a recent graduate who came to work at NIBULON’s elevator in 2009. At the age of 23 Oleksandr became a chief engineer of the branch. He has a lot of subordinates both professionals and the youth. It is easy to work in a friendly cohesive team. Having such a team it is easy to overcome all obstacles. I think there aren’t any problems which cannot be solved by our staff. Together we work for success. For example, the grain storage amount of our elevator comprises 37.8 thousand tons, in 2008/09 marketing year the branch took 251 thousand tons of grain and oil crops (the record amount). There were made 6 full production cycles per year. It is a high result everybody tries to achieve” says a young manager. Sergiy Zhuravel, a chief mechanic, worked in a collective farm in Zhovtneve village in the 80s. When the Soviet Union broke-up he had to change workplaces in order to find deserved wage and appropriate working conditions. In 2007 Sergiy came to work for NIBULON’s elevator. Here he was pleased with everything: material and technical base, level of labour automation, well coordinated professional team. Valeriy Stasyuk, a truck tipper operator, is also satisfied with the working conditions. Valeriy came to NIBULON being an expert, “I have seen a lot to compare. NIBULON means another level of personnel treatment, regular wage, employees receive financial support if necessary. It is a nice stimulus to improve the level of own achievements”. Today the elevator of “Reshetylivs’ka” branch is a model branch of the European level. At the end of July 2007, for expansion of a complex for taking and shipment of grain of “Reshetylivs’ka” branch, NIBULON won the contest for the best buildings and structures built and put into operation in 2006 in the territory of Ukraine that was organized by the Ministry of Construction, Architecture, Housing and Communal Services of Ukraine. In 2007 Viktor Yanukovych visited the elevator. During the visit he met with the staff, became familiar with the modern laboratory. During its operation the branch was rewarded with the Diploma of the Central Administration of the Pension Fund of Ukraine in Poltava region as the best payer of insurance premiums to the budget. NIBULON does not stand aside the village life. The company helps schools, kindergartens, medical institutions. Among important degrees are the Diploma of the executive committee of Zhovtneva village council for assistance in organization of the village events and the Gratitude of Zhovtneva educational complex for active cooperation and long-term support in organization of educational process and school development. NIBULON’s team and General Director Oleksiy Vadaturskyy congratulate the branch colleagues on the 7th anniversary. We wish you professional advancement, team spirit and successes in your activity!
