"Yuzhkabel" is a child of the Great War. In 1943, while
almost the whole of Europe suffered the yoke of fascism, in liberated Kharkov among still
burning ruins and wasteland people were building the first workshops.
Electric power is the blood of the economy, wires and cables are its arteries and
veins. The new plant had to accomplish the honourable task of recreating the circulatory
system of the wounded organism of the town and the country.
As early as March 1944 the plant produced its first batch of magnet wire, that was
supplied to Kharkov Electromechanical plant for production of then vitally important
electric motors.
By the early 1960's the plant's structure was completely formed, it became one of the many
cogs in the huge, monster-like and unwieldy machine of Soviet Union's economy. The plant's
output was growing year by year, the state production orders were exacting and if failed,
caused grave repercussions. The head managers suffered from heart attacks were reprimanded
by the Party. It seemed nobody cared where this output would go...
The year of 1991 was a turning point for the Soviet people in general, and for
"Yuzhkabel" in particular. This plant faster than others recovered from the
shock of breaking up of what had been "unbreakable". Today the joint-stock
company "Yuzhkabel" plant is a leading manufacturer in cable industry against
the background of mysterious Ukrainian economy.
The number of workers has diminished (860 people in 1997 against 2100 in 1972) - the plant
got rid of excessive "weight". The plant leadership became younger, there are
now more new technical ideas, production facilities are being updated.
The output is growing, the number of employed personnel is being increased but on
a more effective, sensible level. The realities of economic situation determine product
range, competition requires higher quality - 80% of output products were certified as
conforming to international standards, the plant establishes new links of international
co-operation - among its partners are well known companies "Dea Tech" (Italy),
"MAG" (Austria).
The plant is actively looking for new markets, new customers from different
countries now purchase "Yuzhkabel's" products. Today its partners come note only
from traditional regions such as Russia, the Baltic states, Turkmenistan, but also from
Vietnam and Romania...
