The Zavodskyi District (Ukrainian: Заводський район, Zavods'kyi raion) is one of seven administrartive urban districts (raions) of the city of Zaporizhia, located in southern Ukraine. Its population was 60,390 in the 2001 Ukrainian Census, and 52,191 as of 2012[update].
The Zavodskyi District is named in such a way due to the fact that a large amount of the city's factories are located within its boundaries. The district is located in the northern portion of the city, on the left-bank of the Dnipro River. Its total area is 56 km2 (22 sq mi).
On 23 May 1969, the Zavodskyi District was established out of a portion of the Ordzhonikidzevskyi District by a decree of the Presidium of the Verkhovna Rada of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic (No.1901-ІХ).
