Hobbit House has been named to the Forbes NEXT 250 — the ranking of Ukraine's most promising private companies, compiled by Forbes Ukraine. For the maker of the Fortetsia reinforced-concrete shelters, it confirms what two of the harshest tests have already proven — war and engineers.
We don't see it as an award for the shelf. Behind every line of this ranking are real people who stayed alive thanks to our structures — in Kherson, Mykolaiv, Kupiansk, Vovchansk.
