For over 15 years, Fungi Farm has been cultivating high-quality, eco-friendly mushrooms in the Ternopil region and is now one of the largest producers of this valuable product in Ukraine. A true family business, all members are actively engaged in business processes and possess deep expertise in mushroom cultivation.

Yevhen Salovskyi, co-founder of the company, joined the project “Enhancing Entrepreneurial Potential and MSME Competencies” with a clear request — to develop a financial management system. As part of the project, Yevhen had the opportunity to work with experienced management consultants Veronika Verba and Yana Terekhova.

During the consulting sessions, the team succeeded in shaping a vision for the company’s development in the context of new trends, war-related challenges, and changes in the business environment. Together, they described a business model by identifying customer segments, their specific needs, and a value proposition tailored to them, as well as defined the key business processes and resources needed to create this value.

We are pleased to highlight the successful first experience of cooperation between Fungi Farm and certified management consultants.

Consulting support for MSMEs was provided within the first phase of the project “Access to Finance and Support for MSME Resilience in Ukraine”, implemented under the international cooperation initiative ReACT4UA (“Application and Implementation of the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement in the Area of Trade”), funded by the Government of Germany.

The strategic implementer of the project is the German federal company Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ Ukraine) GmbH. Executing partners include Deutsche Sparkassenstiftung für Internationale Kooperation (DSIK), German Sparkassenstiftung Ukraine, in cooperation with the Entrepreneurship Development Fund (EDF).

Consulting support within the project component “Enhancing Entrepreneurial Potential and MSME Competencies” was provided by the All-Ukrainian Association of Management Consultants – CMC-Ukraine.
