Due to Ukraine’s location on the Black Sea and many major shipping lines using it as a port of call, the shipping and ports industry in Ukraine is significant.
However, the 2009 downturn has left ports struggling to recover to previous levels. In order to speed the recovery, the government is looking to invest and expand in Ukraine’s ports. This is seen by the approval of the new Development Programme for the Sea Commercial Port of Illichivsk with the intention to more than double the port’s capacity. With investments for these projects requiring more than UAH 1 billion, it should stimulate the market and create more opportunities for businesses in this industry.
