Dnipro tea producer becomes first in Ukraine to get a restoration grant

Ukrainian tea manufacturer and supplier Teahouse, whose production and warehouse facilities burned down as a result of Russia's massive attack on the Dnipro River on the night of July 26, 2025, will be the first in Ukraine to receive a grant for the restoration of, Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko has announced.

At the time of the shelling, no one was inside the Teahouse factory, so no employees were injured. However, the company lost about 100 tons of tea, and its workshops and equipment were destroyed by fire.

"To restore the equipment, Teahouse applied for a restoration grant. They were the first in Ukraine to receive it. The application has already been approved and is being prepared for issuance," Svyrydenko said.

In July 2025, the Cabinet of Ministers approved an expanded version of the Grants for Processing Enterprises program, adding grants for business recovery after Russian shelling.

The amount of the grant can be up to UAH 16 million (but not more than the actual confirmed losses).

The state is ready to cover the costs of purchasing, delivering and installing equipment on a co-financing basis: businesses must invest 20% of the amount, and the remaining 80% will be provided by a grant.

That is, to receive the maximum grant amount, the applicant's own contribution must be UAH 4 million.

Recovery grants will be provided to micro, small and medium-sized enterprises and individual entrepreneurs operating in the processing industry.

• The Economy Ministry claims that government initiatives under the Made in Ukraine program contributed 0.6 points of 2.9% of GDP growth in 2024.
