The municipal institution Odesa Regional Special Medical Supply Base conducted a tender to select a company that will be paid to organize meals for patients with a single participant, Fabryka Smaku Limited Liability Company.
According to the Center for Public Investigations, the relevant information was published in the Prozorro electronic procurement system.
The procurement was conducted in the format of open bidding with special features. After the agreement is concluded, the company will have to organize meals for patients at 27 Kanatna Street and 9 Vitaliy Nesterenko Street in Odesa, as well as in the village of Oleksandrivka at 1 Tsentralna Square for a year. All of these addresses are home to branches of the Odesa Regional Mental Health Center.
Over the course of the year, Fabrika Smaku will have to provide 276,363 meals to patients in the general ward and 66,911 meals to military patients. It is about four meals a day. The company expects to receive UAH 113 million 360.4 thousand for this.
According to the YouControl service, Fabrika Smaku LLC was registered in May 2015 with an authorized capital of 1 thousand hryvnias. Two months later, the company received an order to supply food to hospitals in Odesa. The company is owned by Igor Levinzon and Dmitry Nikitin.
Ihor Levinzon previously owned and managed Bit-Yug LLC (terminated), which received catering contracts in Odesa. The media linked Bit-Yug to former MP Oleksandr Presman. Until 2022, Levinson 's partner in Fabrika Smaku LLC was Tetiana Holubina from Odesa region.
Earlier, Odesa held tenders for catering services for educational institutions in 2026. The total cost of such services was estimated at over UAH 354 million.
The Centerfor Public Investigations decided to find out who got the contracts and whether the suppliers had any corruption risks. Only one company, Fabryka Smaku LLC, submitted an offer for tenders in Prymorskyi and Peresypskyi districts totaling more than UAH 175 million.
In September 2022, the Center for Public Investigations analyzed the companies that participated in tenders for catering for Odesa schoolchildren and identified the key players in this market. Experts ranked Fabryka Smaku LLC as the leader, while Ration Group PE was ranked in the second group of suppliers with fewer tenders won.
