Vladyslav Lytvyn noted that the furniture industry belongs to one of the 4 potential areas of smart specialization of the region, defined in the Development Strategy of Kyiv region for 2021-2027.
- There are 120 furniture manufacturing enterprises in Kyiv region.
- In recent years, the share of industrial products sold by them in total increased from 1.9 to 2.5%, and its volume last year amounted to 314.5 million hryvnias.
- The share of furniture in the total volume of exports of the region over the past 5 years has doubled and in 2020 amounted to 1.4% (or almost 27 million US dollars).
Today, an important priority in the work of the regional state administration is to promote the cluster movement. Therefore, as Vladyslav Lytvyn noted, the Kyiv Regional State Administration supported the initiative of the Ukrainian Furniture Association to create a Furniture Cluster of Kyiv Region and together with interested stakeholders we are working on the implementation of the Memorandum.
Furniture manufacturers of Kyiv region take part in the exhibition-conference. We wish them successful contracts!
