The municipal non-profit enterprise Children's City Clinical Hospital No. 3 in Odesa has held a procurement to select a company that will be paid to provide meals for patients.

The announcement was published in the public procurement system Prozorro.

The only bidder was Fabrika Smaku, a limited liability company, which is expected to pay UAH 18 million 443 thousand.

After signing the contract, the company will have to provide the hospital with these funds by the end of the year:

According to the YouControl service, Fabryka Smaku was registered in May 2015 with a registered capital of UAH 1,000, and two months later it received an order to supply food to hospitals in Odesa. The director and owner of the company is Igor Levinzon.

In December 2023, Nikcenter reported that Odesa medical institutions sometimes pay twice as much for food as in other cities. And the "fake" competitors of the "Fabrika Smaku" in tenders allegedly turned out to be its employees.

In September 2022, the Center for Public Investigations analyzed the composition of companies participating in tenders for the right to feed Odesa schoolchildren and identified the main players in this market in Odesa. The experts identified Fabrika Smaku LLC as one of the leaders.
