The state has regained control of Indar: 27 hard drives disappeared from the plant's servers
The state has restored control over the enterprise "Indar" — the only full-cycle insulin manufacturer in Ukraine. This happened after a decade of de facto management of the plant by the previous administration.
This was reported by State Property Fund head Dmytro Natalukha on Facebook.
According to Natalukha, the state owns over 70% of Indar's shares, but for at least the past decade it effectively had no control over the enterprise.
The head of the SPFU accused the previous director, appointed back during Viktor Yanukovych's presidency, of blocking the supervisory board's work and obstructing the change of leadership.
He claims that management created legal conditions under which the state was obliged to sell its stake to a private minority shareholder without an open auction.
In June 2026 the State Property Fund challenged this scheme in court, restoring the possibility of selling the state's stake through open bidding.
In 27 October the Indar supervisory board, whose powers were restored, decided to change the plant's leadership.
Restoring control over the enterprise opens up opportunities to attract an investor, modernize production, and reduce Ukraine's dependence on imported insulin.
According to Natalukha, after the announcement of the new director's appointment, the former manager summoned employees to the enterprise and ordered them to remove documents and data carriers.
On the evening of 28 October, Natalukha, together with SPFU representatives and the new director, arrived at the plant.
He reported that 27 hard drives had disappeared from the enterprise's servers. They were later found in a box in the trunk of a company car parked outside the surveillance cameras' view.
In addition, the former director attempted to take a package of court documents related to sanctioned and seized property, presenting them as her father's medical records.
The events were documented by an investigative-operational group of the National Police.
On 29 October the new director and the supervisory board chair began their work.
Natalukha named stabilizing the enterprise, regaining control over documentation, and conducting an audit of the plant's activities over the past ten years as immediate priorities.
The SPFU also plans to find an investor to develop the enterprise.
