Overall comment
Historically the deal was a part of MK holding with Serbian investment. After the change of ownership in 2017, the deal is a part of Kernel holding. Closely related to 5738 as they were purchased at the same time and operated at the same region. The operating company was terminated right after the purchase with an assignee Prydniprovskyi Krai LLC (id number - 25207363) - another subsidiary in Kernel. According to the company source, Kernel holding no longer operates (farming) in the Kyiv region
