A new investment property has appeared on the Ukrainian industrial real estate market: a full-fledged production complex combining a granite quarry with confirmed and potential reserves of up to 20 million tons of raw materials and a full-cycle crushed stone plant has been put up for sale in Zhytomyr region. The facility is located in Berdychiv district, near the village of Rayky, just 40 minutes from Zhytomyr.
The location has a convenient transport infrastructure: there is a railway station nearby, and access roads are asphalt and gravel. This logistics allows for efficient transportation of finished products both within the region and beyond.
The total area of the quarry is 25 hectares. The balance sheet reserves of raw materials exceed 10 million tons, and about the same amount is unconfirmed but available for development.

The price is $3 million.
The reason for the sale is asset diversification.
The sale of several quarries in Ukraine – from an andesite complex in Zakarpattia to granite deposits in Zhytomyr region – indicates the revitalization of the heavy raw materials infrastructure market. In the context of post-war recovery and growing demand for construction materials, such facilities are becoming strategically important for investors considering long-term investments in the real economy.
Ready-made infrastructure, existing permits, certified equipment and logistical advantages form an attractive basis for entering the market or scaling up an existing business. Given the high capitalization of the construction industry in the coming years, the quarries for sale can become not only an asset with a predictable income, but also an important element of the country’s recovery.
