State Enterprise “Forests of Ukraine” has proposed increasing its investment plan for 2026 to UAH 4.1 billion, of which more than UAH 2.1 billion is planned to be spent on Ukrainian-made goods and services. The updated investment program will be focused on supporting the state policy “Made in Ukraine,” according to a Facebook post by the state-owned enterprise’s CEO, Yuriy Bolokhovets.
He noted that UAH 380 million has been allocated for the purchase of firefighting equipment in the investment program of the State Forestry Agency of Ukraine. He emphasized that 95% of these funds can be received by Ukrainian enterprises that manufacture fire trucks, modules, video surveillance masts, special clothing, and equipment.
UAH 80 million has been allocated for forest restoration equipment (disc harrows, mulchers, seeders). The company is ready to allocate another UAH 100 million for the purchase of Ukrainian-made trailers, semi-trailers, and trawls.
At the same time, the CEO of Lisiv Ukrainy noted that modern logging equipment (harvesters, forwarders) is not yet produced in Ukraine, so they plan to purchase it directly from European manufacturers.
Among other investment areas, Bolokhovets mentioned the construction of forest roads, for which UAH 621 million has been allocated. The work will be carried out by the company itself or by Ukrainian contractors using local materials. In addition, the development of forest seed centers will continue, for which the state-owned enterprise has allocated UAH 270 million, 90% of which will be spent on Ukrainian goods and services.
Bolochovets added that next month, the procurement department of the state-owned enterprise “Forests of Ukraine” plans to hold a “Supplier Day.” Businesses will be presented with investment programs and procurement plans for 2026-2027 to obtain feedback on technical specifications and the level of competition.
The CEO of “Forests of Ukraine” recalled that in 2025, 72,000 enterprises took advantage of the “Made in Ukraine” state support programs.
