From Cinișeuți to the Romanian Market: A Furniture Business Grows with European Union Support
In the village of Cinișeuți, Rezina district, a furniture factory is expanding its operations, with its products reaching markets beyond Moldova, including Romania. With the support of the European Union, entrepreneur Liudmila Cozacenco has invested in modern equipment, photovoltaic panels and solutions that make the production process more efficient and environmentally friendly.
The company operates in the furniture manufacturing sector and continuously invests in modernising its equipment and improving working conditions. European Union grants provided through programmes managed by the Organisation for Entrepreneurship Development (ODA) have played an important role in the company’s growth.
One of these grants, worth MDL 500,000, was awarded through the Programme for the Greening of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises. With this funding, the company purchased a dust extraction system and modern ventilation hoods, which help reduce dust emissions and maintain a cleaner and safer working environment.
In addition, through other investments supported by ODA programmes, the entrepreneur has acquired modern equipment and installed photovoltaic panels. These investments help streamline production, increase operational capacity and reduce electricity costs.
In total, the business has benefited from over MDL 3.2 million in funding and support instruments through ODA programmes, contributing to the company’s development and strengthening its position in the market.
For Liudmila Cozacenco, investing in modern technologies and sustainable solutions is an important step towards growing the business and expanding its market reach.
The story of this company in Cinișeuți shows how European Union support helps local entrepreneurs modernise production, improve working conditions and become more competitive, including in international markets.
