Grants for processors: how the Made in Ukraine program created over 17 thousand jobs

The "Made in Ukraine" grant support program, aimed at the development of the processing industry, has been bringing significant results for two years. During this period, more than 17 thousand new jobs have been created thanks to its implementation. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine.

This initiative is part of the state strategy to support national manufacturers under the slogan "Made in Ukraine". Its main goal is to promote the modernization of equipment at enterprises operating in various sectors of the processing industry.

The list of program participants includes companies from the woodworking, metalworking, food, printing industries, as well as manufacturers of construction equipment and unmanned aerial vehicles. Thanks to a wide range of areas, the program helps stimulate economic development in key sectors of the industry.

To participate in the program, entrepreneurs can receive grants of up to 8 million hryvnias. These funds can be used to purchase technological equipment, such as machine tools, production lines, painting booths, as well as for transportation and commissioning of equipment. This approach allows businesses to significantly increase their competitiveness and efficiency.

The condition for receiving a grant is mandatory co-financing in the ratio of 50% to 50%. However, for enterprises located in de-occupied territories or those operating in the defense sector, the state takes on up to 80% of the financing. This creates additional incentives for business development in difficult conditions.

The “Made in Ukraine” program demonstrates not only a positive impact on job creation, but also contributes to the development of the country's economic potential. Thanks to state support, enterprises are able to modernize their production processes, contributing to the overall growth of the Ukrainian economy even in difficult conditions.
