Utena region

Your business location in Lithuania

Home to the decommissioned Visaginas nuclear power plant, Utena has a large pool of highly skilled professionals with experience in the energy sector.

The country’s largest brewery, the Carlsberg owned Švyturys - Utenos brand, boasts a long tradition of skill and mastery in this sector.

Outside of its strong industrial competences, Utena is characterised by its scenic setting and its traditions of organic food production and niche agricultural services such as horse-breeding and training.
