Industrial Parks as a Strategic Foundation for the Development of Ukrainian Agri-Sector and Processing

Ukrainian agricultural holdings are increasingly transforming their business models, shifting from traditional raw material exports to the creation of high-value-added products. Industrial parks are becoming a key tool and a strategic foundation for this evolution.

Valeriy Kyrylko, CEO of the “Industrial Parks of Ukraine” Group of Companies, shared his vision for the development of agro-industrial sites in Ukraine in his author’s column for Landlord. Against the backdrop of global challenges and the need to modernize industrial infrastructure, this direction is becoming one of the most dynamic in the country.

Key Takeaways and Growth Vectors:

  • From Raw Materials to Deep Processing: Domestic agricultural holdings are increasingly choosing a deep product processing model, which helps diversify risks and increase business profit margins.
  • Long-term Planning: Industrial parks serve as a reliable tool for the long-term development of production capacities with a planning horizon of 10 to 15 years.
  • Tax and Customs Incentives: Thanks to current legislation, residents of industrial parks can benefit from significant tax relief and customs preferences to implement their investment projects.
  • Ready Infrastructure is the Key to Success: The availability of connected utilities, logistics routes, and basic engineering infrastructure remains the primary factor that attracts investors and ensures a rapid launch of enterprises.
  • Synergy with Communities and Logistics: A vital role in the viability of projects is played by close cooperation with local communities, the development of modern logistics infrastructure, and the continuous attraction of new residents.

“For us, an indicator of real success is not the number of registered legal entities, but the occupancy of the industrial park at 100%. This is the most clear and objective criterion,” — notes Valeriy Kyrylko.

For clients and partners of PB Energy Consulting, the development of industrial parks opens up new opportunities in energy efficiency, grid connection engineering, and the implementation of modern autonomous energy supply solutions for large-scale production sites.
