Biography

Pyotr Kondrashev started working at the Silvinit fertilizer factory in 1972.

In 2010 he and his partners sold their stakes in Silvinit, then Russia's second-largest producer of potassium fertilizer, for an estimated $3 billion.

In 2014 he bought Solikamsk Magnesium Plant (SMZ), which produces 60% of Russia's rare earth metal magnesium.

Kondrashov invested in Swiss solar machinery-maker Meyer Burger in 2016.
