In 2019, the group continued its active regional development and acquired an asset in the Kherson region — "Aerated concrete Kakhovka". Subsequently, the group invested in a production complex in the Lviv region — LLC "Rozvadiv Budmaterialy".

In 2020, Kovalska restarted the development direction, strengthened the team and increased the portfolio of projects, as well as entered the office real estate market, becoming an investor in five new UNIT.City campuses, and she began construction of the Nuvo business park in downtown Kyiv.
