Finland's leading fast food chain, Hesburger, has opened a burger patty production plant and distribution centre in Boryspil, investing €7.3 million in the project.
“This opening represents an important step in strengthening our position in the Ukrainian market. It creates a solid foundation for business growth, network expansion and improved operational capabilities,” said Kari Salmela, CEO of Hesburger Finland, in a company press release on Thursday.
The new production and warehouse complex will create 10 new jobs, bringing the total number of Hesburger employees in Ukraine to 75 people.
According to Wanda Zamytska-Bergendahl, CEO of Hesburger Ukraine, the construction process encountered numerous delays and was interrupted twice, which significantly increased the project implementation time. She thanked the company's Ukrainian partners, including the Ministry of Development, the Ministry of Economy, the Kyiv Regional State Administration and the Boryspil District Administration, for their support.
“Hesburger is focused on further development in Ukraine and plans to expand its network within a year. However, first and foremost, we sincerely hope for peace in Ukraine,” the press release states.
