Industrial Parks as Catalysts for Ukraine’s Economic Growth: The Bila Tserkva Case

Since 2022, Ukraine has experienced enormous industrial disruptions. However, a new growth model has emerged: industrial parks. These ready-made ecosystems offer a faster, safer, and more cost-effective solution for restarting or relocating production.

At the forefront of this movement is the Industrial Park Bila Tserkva, located just 75 km south of Kyiv. It’s proving that infrastructure, not just capital, is the foundation of recovery.


Infrastructure-as-a-Service: How the Model Works

The traditional approach to launching a production facility in Ukraine could take up to 18 months — securing land, installing utilities, obtaining permits.

Industrial Park Bila Tserkva eliminates these barriers by offering:

  • Pre-zoned industrial land and factory buildings;

  • Centralized utilities (power, water, sewerage, internet);

  • Engineering and legal support;

  • Turnkey development of new facilities;

  • Ongoing operational support after launch.

This enables investors to launch in as little as 4–6 months — saving time, cost, and risk.


Strategic Location Meets Smart Logistics

The park’s location is unmatched:

  • 0.1 km to freight railway station “Rotok”;

  • 0.1–0.5 km to two major highways (P32 and E95);

  • 14.5 km to customs clearance zone;

  • 90–120 km to two international airports.

The site is fully equipped with:

  • Transformer substations (630 kVA);

  • Water supply and wastewater treatment systems;

  • Fiber optic internet;

  • 24/7 security and emergency infrastructure.

This makes Bila Tserkva a prime hub for domestic and export-oriented production.


Built for Recovery: Government Support Makes It Work

Under Ukraine’s Law on Industrial Parks, residents are eligible for:

  • 0% import duty and VAT on equipment;

  • Up to 10 years of 0% corporate income tax (if eligible);

  • Partial reimbursement of infrastructure connection costs;

  • Priority access to international funding programs (EIB, USAID, EBRD).

Combined with rapid permitting and hands-on assistance from the park’s management team, this creates an ideal low-risk, high-efficiency investment platform.


Who Can Benefit from Industrial Park Bila Tserkva ?

The park is tailored for:

  • Relocating manufacturers from high-risk regions;

  • Exporters and nearshoring partners from the EU;

  • Industrial SMEs looking to expand in Central Ukraine;

  • Companies in:

    • food processing

    • metalworking

    • packaging

    • light manufacturing

    • machine building

    • logistics and warehousing

Dozens of companies have already launched operations here — creating jobs, exports, and stable growth.


Conclusion: Don’t Start from Scratch — Start with Infrastructure

In the post-war economy, speed and resilience matter more than ever.
Industrial parks like Bila Tserkva offer a realistic, proven path to rebuild Ukrainian industry.
