The President of the Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Hennadiy Chyzhykov, noted that last year the volume of Ukrainian exports reached 129.2 million tons of goods, equivalent to 41 billion dollars. The continuation of trade in the international market indicates not only the resilience of businesses but also their ability to adapt to new global conditions.

Expected Export Growth
Chyzhykov predicts an increase in export volumes, primarily in those sectors where Ukraine already has significant competitive advantages. These include: agro-processing, food industry, IT, machine engineering, pharmaceuticals, and woodworking. A key factor for growth will remain high value-added products.
Hennadiy Chyzhykov emphasized that the main task of the chamber is to support businesses in integrating into European value creation chains. To date, the Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce and Industry is also actively opening new markets for Ukrainian exporters in Africa, Asia, and Latin America.
New Markets and Foreign Investments
For example, the Chamber is assisting companies in entering the markets of Kenya and Egypt with agro-technologies, equipment, and processed products. Chyzhykov believes that foreign investors continue to show interest in Ukraine despite the military risks.
“Investors are attracted not only by our export potential but also by the presence of international arbitration, digital services, and the flexibility of Ukrainian businesses”
