History

The club was founded in 2010 and sponsored by local agrarian company VPK-Ahro, hence the club's name.[3] The club's president Volodymyr Korsun used to play for the club's predecessor FC Druzhba Mahdalynivka.[1]

In 2013, the club along with another club from Dnipro, FC Pobieda Dnipro, fielded a joint team Pobieda–VPK-Ahro in regional competitions for a season, but it did not perform well.[1]
