Defence Industry Park

The development of a defence industry park for the production of ammunition, munition not containing an explosive substance, munition containing an explosive substance, military explosives, military explosive substance, or their components is one of the priorities of the Government of the Republic. A national designated spatial plan was initiated at the beginning of 2024 and, according to the plan, will be established in August 2025.

On April 4, 2025, the area around the village of Ermistu in Pärnu County was announced as the preferred location for the industrial park. The state will develop the base infrastructure of the defence industry park there, while companies will be responsible for constructing the production buildings. The second preferred area is located in Põhja-Kiviõli.

Alongside the national designated spatial planning, consultations have taken place with defence industry companies that have expressed interest in producing in Estonia. Interest has been shown by both emerging domestic companies and international manufacturers.

To select companies, on April 9, 2025, we announced a call for proposals for the use of state property in the planned park. The call for proposals has been published in the Official Announcements (English translation is provided in the documents).
