shherbinina

Tatyana Shcherbinina’s factory was founded near the hamlet Zavodskiy. This factory was produced bricks, and the location of the factory was very suitable for this purpose. The factory mined sand and clay in the neighboring river Nemyshlya. It was a necessary raw material for producing bricks.

In 1816 a horse market appeared on the square near the brick factory. In this market people were selling wool and horses. Therefore the square near the market was called Horse’s square. The name of this place still hasn’t been changed.

In 1822 Sloboda Nemyshlya has become a part of Kharkiv. This event led to the development of the city. Things at the Horse’s market went well, warehouses and inns were actively built around the square.gerb-byrdinyh

The development of the region drew retired captain Ilya Birdin’s attention. In 1829 he has built his own warehouse for wool on the Staro-Moscowskaya street. The warehouse, built by Ilya Birdin, still exists. Today the buildings are used as offices and warehouses of the Golden Mile Trade House.

kuziny

The largest fairs in the east of the Russian Empire were held on the Horse’s square. Sheep’s wool was sold at those fairs.

Many entrepreneurs were fond of the production and sales of sheep’s wool at that time. That is why the rich merchant Kuzma Kuzin bought Shcherbinina’s brick factory for his wife Katerina.

Kuzma Kuzin founded the first joint stock company in the Kharkov province. It was the Kharkov joint stock company for the trade of wool. Kuzmin used the buildings and territory of Mrs. Katerina Kuzmina’s factory to create the company.

On the 8th of March 1838, the charter of the company was approved. On the 22nd of April members of the joint-stock company began selling shares. The first leaders of the company were Prince Golitsyn, Prince Korsakov and Kuzin.dram-teatr

Kuzin was the founder of merchant traditions in Kharkov. He was the mayor, but he resigned. He built 44 buildings in the city. These are the factory, the church and even the dramatic theater. Today it is the Kharkiv State Academic Theater named after Shevchenko.

At that time the company became the leading enterprise of the Russian Empire in the field of wool trade The government has allowed to take the company’s shares as collateral to the obligations with the Treasury. Alexander Tsarevich became the patron of the company. The Royal Mint issued a special medal named “Kondratieff Prize”. This medal was awarded to the best partners of the company.

ОльховскийIn 1876 the brewer and merchant Oleksiy Olkhovsky bought a plot of land and storage space from Ilya Birdin. He built a two-storied beer-mixing plant on that spot. There were barracks for the employees of the plant, boiler room, office and malt-house near the plant. The factory was producing high-quality beer, which received international awards.

In 1878 Elizaveta Kowalska founded a secret circle. The participant of this circle, Petr Antonov, held the first strike against a twelve-hour working day and poor working conditions at the factory in 1879 .

In 19 century wool trade was falling into decay. That is why the Olkhovsky’s factory bought real estate and all the property of the Kharkiv Joint Stock Company. At that time the factory was producing guns, and army infantry was located in the barracks of the enterprise.

In 1922 the enterprise began producing bakery yeasts.
In 1926-1927 the beer factory also turned into a yeast enterprise.
