RUMO Plant (Russian: РУМО,[1] RUssian MOtors) is a company based in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia, and established in 1874.

The RUMO Diesel Plant manufactures large diesel engines for river cargo ship propulsion and diesel generator sets. It also manufactures reduction gears for cargo ships, integral-shaft diesel/gas compressors for pipeline boosting and for secondary oil extraction in petroleum fields, as well as metal products and household goods. Military orders were once 15 to 20 percent of total output, but have reportedly fallen to zero.[2]
