Hapag-Lloyd has announced the opening of a new office in Ukraine, a country in Europe located on the northern shores of the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov.
The new office will be located in Odessa and will be the working place for 21 employees.
Ukraine is the second-largest European country by area covering a strategic geographic position between the European Union and Russia.
Various mineral resources and the world’s largest agricultural production make Ukraine an attractive export market for Hapag-Lloyd, which said that the country is also an important import country for electronics, machinery and consumer goods.
“The economic growth of the country is convincing and many Ukrainian customers already rely on the services of Hapag-Lloyd. With the opening of our new office in the country, we pay tribute to the excellent business development and the enormous chances we see in this market”, said Juan Pablo Richards, Senior Managing Director Region South Europe of Hapag-Lloyd.
