SAMSON (13 Moskovskoe Highway), an open joint-stock company from 1992, a meat plant processing cattle and poultry and producing food, medicines, and industrial goods. It was founded in 1933 as Kirov Leningrad Packing House, acquiring its present name in 1992. Evacuated to the north of the city in the autumn of 1941, the packing house switched to production of food concentrates and medications such as Ferrohematogen and Campolon made of animal blood and liver, as well as cold steel and grenades. A number of mobile sausage factories were opened to supply the army. Largely destroyed during artillery bombardments, the packing house was restored by 1950. The first sample pelmeni-making machine was invented and manufactured in 1949 soon to become a common device in the country's food industry. The enterprise was split into a number of subsidiaries by 2002. The group of the buildings designed by a team of architects with N. A. Trotsky at the head is a striking example of constructivist industrial architecture, awarded a gold medal and a Grand-Prix diploma at the World's Fair in Paris in 1937. The monument to Kirov by sculptor N. V. Tomsky (1937) and the monument to the Soldier by architect A. P. Chernitsky were erected on the territory of the packing plant. The group of sculptures called Byki (Bulls) can be seen in front of the entrance, sculptured by V. I. Demut-Malinovsky in 1826 and installed in 1937. Reference: Храмихин П. П.
