Additional costs for alternative logistics of agro-export amount to EUR 50-90 per tonne – UCAB head
Additional costs for the delivery of Ukrainian agricultural products to alternative unloading points in the case of reorientation of exports from the sea route amount to EUR50-90 per tonne, said Oleh Khomenko, director general of the association Ukrainian Club of Agrarian Business (UCAB).
Ukraine's agricultural exports face additional costs of between €50 and €90 per tonne when shipping to alternative unloading points, as reported by Oleh Khomenko, the head of the Ukrainian Club of Agrarian Business (UCAB). During a press conference on Thursday at the Interfax-Ukraine news agency, Khomenko emphasized that logistics chains currently under reconstruction cannot fully replace the Black Sea route due to complexity, economy, and throughput considerations.
The additional expenses for delivering cargo to these alternative locations, whether the Black or Baltic Sea, amount to the stated per-tonne range, according to Khomenko. He explained that these increased logistics costs have implications for the overall export process.
