The Finnish fast food chain Hesburger has opened a new production complex for making burger patties, as well as a distribution warehouse in Boryspil, located in the Kyiv region. The total investment in this project amounted to €7.3 million, marking the first Finnish industrial investment in Ukraine since the onset of the full-scale invasion by Russia.

The launch of the new production and logistics center will create 10 new jobs. In total, Hesburger has already employed 75 staff members in Ukraine.
“This is a significant step in strengthening our competitive position in Ukraine. The new complex lays a solid foundation for further business development, expanding our restaurant network, and producing our burgers with high-quality local ingredients,” said Hesburger.
The company intends to expand its restaurant network in Ukraine this year, emphasizing that its main desire is for peace to return to the region.
Currently, Hesburger operates seven restaurants in the Kyiv region. This Finnish brand has been in the fast food market for over 50 years and owns nearly 500 restaurants in nine countries.
