Of more than 70 officially registered industrial parks, only about 10 are working, said Danylo Hetmantsev, head of the Tax Committee.
“Nowadays, it is important not so much to create more new industrial parks, but to deeply understand the issue – what went wrong during the last quarter of a century of the existence of industrial and technological parks?” he said.
Hetmantsev drew attention to the fact that some parks still do not have a management company, their occupancy rates are generally quite low, and the last update of information concerning industrial park activities on the Ministry of Economy’s website, which is responsible for these parks, dates from September 2023, indicating that “it goes wrong.”
Therefore, the deputy emphasized the need to understand what exactly hinders the development of industrial parks in Ukraine and why this has not happened yet.
