Earlier, the government includedthe “Bessarabian AgroTech Park” in Artsyz, Odesa Oblast, in the state register. The plan is to spend 884 million hryvnias on the facility’s construction.

The industrial park’s official status provides access to stateaidand simplifies the process of securing funding for infrastructure development. This creates additional opportunities to expand local production and manufacture finished goods rather than raw materials.

The “Bessarabian AgroTech Park” industrial park will process vegetables, fruits, and potatoes and produce value-added food products. There are also plans to implement projects in the field of alternative energy here. The facilities will be located on a 23-hectare site. The project is expected to create approximately 1,000 jobs.
