Zavodska (Ukrainian: Заводська) is a station on the Kharkiv Metro's Kholodnohirsko–Zavodska Line. It was opened on 23 August 1975.

The station is located close to the Malyshev Factory.[1]

On 26 July 2024, the station's name was changed from Zavod imeni Malysheva to Zavodska as part of efforts towards decommunization and derussification.[2]
