Partnership of chemical plants P.K. Ushkova and Co.

In 1850 , the Russian entrepreneur Kapiton Yakovlevich Ushkov in Bondyug (now part of Mendeleevsk ) and Novy Kokshan in the Yelabuga district of the Vyatka province founded enterprises for the production of potassium chrompeak , an urgently needed Russian manufacturing industry ^[2] .

In 1883 , the son of K. Ya. Ushkov, Pyotr Kapitonovich , considered one of the pioneers of the domestic chemical industry, established on the basis of these enterprises the “Partnership of Chemical Plants P.K. Ushkov and Co.”. The companion of Peter Ushkov was his younger brother Konstantin Kapitonovich , who later became known as a member of the Association for the Establishment of the Moscow Art Theater and the first shareholder of the theater.

In addition to chemical enterprises in the Vyatka, Kazan and Samara provinces , the Ushkov companies owned a chalk factory in the Simbirsk province , a brick and pottery factory in the Vyatka province, as well as its own fleet that delivered finished products to Moscow, Nizhny Novgorod , Kazan , Yaroslavl , Perm , etc. major cities of the empire. Up to nationalization ^[3], as a result of the events of 1917 , the plants and factories of the Ushkov Partnership were the largest association of chemical enterprises in pre-revolutionary Russia. ^[four]
