Novgorod Lumber Factory Starts Manufacturing Galleys and Skiffs

The other day, the director of Novgorod region development agency Alexander Dementiev and his deputy Victor Bykov went to Parfino city settlement and visited LLC “Northern Forest”. Deputy head of administration of Parfino district Ludmila Ivanova also participated in the meeting.

LLC “Northern Forest” produces lumber for wooden housing construction and produces components for cabinet furniture for export.

During the pandemic the company has not only managed to keep the volumes of the production, but also discovered for itself a new unique and highly demanded niche: production of small wooden rowing boats – galleys and skiffs.

According to the words of the founder of LLC “Nothern Forest” Leonid Lomilin, there is a high demand for these types of watercrafts on the market but lack of manufacturers. I.e., Russian Federation Navy alone needs 600 skiffs today.

Now the plans of the factory are to carry out modernization of the equipment by 2021 and to start conveyor production of boats.

The contract with the St. Petersburg Regional Sports Organization “Yacht Club of St. Petersburg” for producing the first batch of products in 2020-2021, twenty galleys and six skiffs, is in the final stage.
Second and third stages of the investment project till 2025 will be not only civilian market entry, but also getting state orders and selling boats in the international market.

Parfino city settlement is a single-industry town, so the company has the opportunity to get financial support from Single-industry towns Fund. Novgorod region development agency will help with it, as the institution is working closely with the Fund. The Agency will take care of all paperwork and will support the investment project in future.
