NovaSklo, part of the EFI Group of investment companies, has signed a memorandum of understanding with the International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group, to support the establishment of Ukraine’s first modern float-glass production facility. This move marks a significant step toward revitalizing Ukraine’s manufacturing sector and enhancing its economic resilience. The partnership is expected to bring advanced technology and investment into the country, creating job opportunities and boosting local industries.

This initiative is part of a broader strategy to diversify Ukraine’s economy and reduce its reliance on imports.
EFI Group’s press service highlighted the memorandum of understanding as a crucial milestone in the country’s industrial modernization efforts. The collaboration is anticipated to attract additional investments and foster technological innovation, positioning Ukraine as a competitive player in the global market. With the support of the IFC, NovaSklo aims to establish a sustainable and efficient production process that aligns with international standards and environmental regulations.
