Roshen Confectionery Corporation (Ukrainian: Кондитерська корпорація «Роше́н», romanized: Kondyterska korporatsiya "Roshen") is a Ukrainian confectionery manufacturing group.[5] It operates facilities in the Ukrainian cities of Kyiv, Vinnytsia, Ivankiv, and Kremenchuk, as well as in Budapest, Hungary, and Klaipėda, Lithuania. The company's name is derived from the last name of its owner, Petro Poroshenko (Poroshenko), who was the president of Ukraine from 2014 to 2019.
In 2012, the Roshen Corporation ranked 18th in the "Candy Industry Top 100" list of the world's largest confectionery companies.[4] It has a total annual production volume of 410,000 tonnes.[2][6] The company exports to Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Armenia, Moldova, Estonia, Hungary, Poland, Latvia, Lithuania, the United States, Canada, Germany, Romania, Finland, Bulgaria, and Israel.[6] Previously, it also exported to Russia, from which it derived 40 percent of its gross revenue until Russia ceased importing from the company in July 2013.[7] In early 2017, Candy Industry placed ROSHEN in 24th place in the "2017 Global Top 100" of confectionery producers and estimated its annual revenue at $800 million.[8]
