About Our Plant

Kherson State Plant “Pallada” has a truly interesting history. Having been founded in 1936 as a “Dokstroy” it was renamed a few times – into “Kherson shipbuilding dockyard” in 1944 and then into “Kherson shipbuilding plant “Pallada” in 1970.

In the year 1977 it became a part of a Kherson shipbuilding production association as a self-supporting organization department and only in 1998 Kherson State Plant “Pallada” acquires its present name as well as complete legal and financial self-sufficiency.
