The "Made in Ukraine" program supports the resumption of production
Ukraine has launched a new phase of its program to support industrial parks damaged by Russian shelling. The government is allocating tens of millions of hryvnias to restore infrastructure and develop manufacturing. At the same time, the authorities are expanding funding and establishing requirements for launching new businesses in these parks, according to Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko.
A new program has launched in Ukraine as part of the “Made in Ukraine” policy, which is directly aimed at revitalizing industrial sites damaged by Russian attacks and bringing back production, investment, and jobs there.
This week, the Ministry of Economy approved funding for several sites at once: the Sparrow Park Lviv industrial park will receive 91 million hryvnias to restore industrial infrastructure following the massive attack on Lviv in 2025, while the SMART TECH INDUSTRY park in Poltava Oblast will receive 5.5 million hryvnias to develop gas and water supply networks.
As explained by the ministry, the program’s structure is based on co-financing: the state can cover up to 80% of infrastructure restoration costs, but no more than 200 million hryvnias per park, while for new construction, a “50-50” format applies with a limit of up to 150 million hryvnias.
Separately, clear requirements have been established for program participants: the management company must invest its own funds, commission at least 5,000 square meters of industrial space, and attract at least two enterprises that will actually operate in the park.
The 2026 state budget has already allocated 1 billion hryvnias for the development of industrial parks, and the application period runs from March 31 through August 15, allowing businesses to plan their participation in the program well in advance.
According to official data, as of the end of last year, 37 factories had already been built or were under construction in industrial parks, and this sector is viewed as one of the key growth areas for Ukrainian industry within the framework of state economic policy.
According to Ukrainian authorities, approximately 8 million Ukrainians are currently abroad due to the war, and this is no longer just a humanitarian issue but also a strategic problem for the state.
