Ukraine’s industrial parks sector continues to gain significant traction, driven by a mix of government funding, foreign private investments, new training centers, and residential developments. Here is a summary of the key developments from the past month.
At her appointment as Prime Minister, Yuliya Svyrydenko emphasized that industrial parks remain a top priority in the government’s economic policy, signaling strong state support for this sector.
Two industrial parks recently received substantial state financing as part of the infrastructure development stimulus program. The “Kronospan Rivne” park in Rivne region secured 55.3 million hryvnias to build a combined heat and power generation station. Meanwhile, the “KIT” park in Bucha, Kyiv region, was allocated 147.7 million hryvnias for constructing internal site utility networks.
Foreign investment also marks a major boost: Italian packaging manufacturer Guala Pack S.P.A. announced a €12 million investment to build approximately 10,000 square meters of industrial facilities in the “Bila Tserkva” industrial park. The deal was formalized during the URC conference in Rome.
In Zakarpattia, a new residential complex is under construction in Perechyn to house workers from the “Friendly Wind Technology” industrial park. The development is expected to double the town’s population from around 6,000 to 12,000–13,000 residents. Perechyn’s mayor, Ivan Pohorilyak, has urged former residents who had sought work abroad to return home.
Progress continues at the “Formatsiya Synivka” park, where internal utility networks for the first phase are now 85% complete, with full completion—including landscaping—scheduled for August 2025. External engineering networks will be finished by November. A sandwich panel manufacturing plant is currently installing equipment, with operations planned to launch in August. Other tenants preparing to move in include a plastic bottle cap manufacturer and a metal processing plant.
The “Bila Tserkva” industrial park is also launching a Professional Education Center, a collaborative project with the local city council aimed at training specialists for the businesses within the park.
Innovative plans are underway in Kharkiv, where the company BIP, managing the “Volodymyr” and “Novovolynsk” parks, has proposed Ukraine’s first underground industrial park. Construction is expected to start in the first quarter of 2026.
Meanwhile, American real estate firm White Star Real Estate is considering a €200 million investment in the “Bucha Techno Garden” industrial park. A memorandum of understanding was signed at the URC conference between White Star, UkraineInvest, and Bucha city authorities.
Local governments are also advancing new industrial park projects. Lebedyn city council in Sumy region approved the creation of the “Lebedyn” industrial park, spanning 21 hectares. In Lviv region, Stryi city council unveiled the concept for the “Stryi Valley” industrial park, covering 77.11 hectares, with registration documents being prepared. Gorokhiv city council allocated 14 hectares for a new industrial park, with registration paperwork forthcoming.
Deputy Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Economic Development, Dmytro Kysylevskyy, highlighted these initiatives as key drivers of Ukraine’s industrial growth, underscoring the combined efforts of government, private investors, and local communities.
