New Plant in Ternopil Region
In the Kozlivska community (Ternopil region), a new plant for brick and ceramic block production is nearing completion.
-
Capacity: up to 30 million bricks annually
-
Product line: ordinary bricks and ceramic blocks for industrial, residential, and agricultural construction
-
Technology: highly automated processes with local raw materials
-
Energy supply: primarily gas, with an option to switch to alternative fuel (pellets)
The project is 90% complete and expected to start operations soon, creating 50 new jobs and generating stable tax revenues for the region.
Strategic Importance for Investors
-
Reconstruction demand: Ukraine’s rebuilding efforts require massive volumes of building materials.
-
Market orientation: The plant will serve both domestic construction projects and export markets.
-
Efficiency: Local raw material base reduces logistics costs and ensures competitive pricing.
-
Automation: High level of automation minimizes operational risks and labor costs.
This facility represents a strategically important anchor investment for the region’s economy, strengthening Ukraine’s industrial potential in construction.
M&A Benchmark
For comparison, an operating brick factory in Raigorod (Cherkasy region) with a capacity of 3.5 million bricks per year is currently offered for $650,000. This illustrates the attractive entry cost of Ukraine’s building materials market and the potential for scaling production.
Investment Vector Summary
Foreign investors entering Ukraine’s construction and building materials sector gain access to:
-
Strong domestic demand fueled by reconstruction;
-
Low production costs and proximity to EU markets;
-
Opportunities for green transition (alternative fuels, modern automation);
-
M&A prospects at favorable valuations.
Ukraine is positioning itself not only as a consumer but also as a competitive producer of building materials for regional markets.
🔑 Investor Takeaway: The new Ternopil plant with 30M annual brick capacity and scalable regional opportunities form a high-potential investment vector in Ukraine’s building materials industry.
