Resilience in Action: Sustaining Maritime Operations in Ukraine

Over the past two years, Ukraine's maritime sector has faced immense challenges and transformations due to the conflict. Yet, our Ukraine office has shown remarkable resilience and adaptability, ensuring smooth and reliable port operations even under Martial Law and continuous air strikes. Thanks to the trust and support of our customers and company, we remain determined to keep your business moving and support global trade.

In this article, we will share some of the strategies we've employed to sustain operations and our readiness to assist customers with port calls in Ukraine.

Stronger Together: Partnerships That Drive Resilience

Leveraging our robust global network and strategic partnerships, we have forged a long-standing collaboration with the World Food Programme, which has continued uninterrupted during the conflict.

From the start of the Grain from Ukraine initiative, our partners have worked with us to ensure vital supplies reach their destinations. We extend heartfelt thanks to the team in Rome for their steadfast support during these difficult times. It's a testament to how strong partnerships make a real difference.

Real-Time Insights for Your Operations

Accurate and timely information is critical in uncertain times. To empower our customers, we offer a regularly updated Port Situation Map detailing conditions and regulations at Black Sea ports near Russia and Ukraine.

Backed by our team with deep local expertise, this tool helps customers stay informed and plan with confidence. Customers can connect with us after reviewing the map to explore how we can tailor our services to their specific needs.

In active ports, we provide a comprehensive range of Full Agency, Protective Agency, Husbandry, and Logistics services to meet your operational demands.

Financial Solution That Unlocks Working Capital and Simplifies Operations

In these demanding times, our customers face increased financial pressures, making effective and efficient financial management more crucial than ever. Hence, we are offering Port Cost Financing, a financial solution designed to remove pre-funding hassles. Customers can consolidate all port call expenses — including canal transits and Cash-To-Master payments — into one simplified payment made every 90 days.

This solution can help them free up their cash flow, streamline payment processes, and provide the financial flexibility they need to focus on growing their business.

Your Reliable Partner in Challenging Times

Throughout this challenging period, we have prioritized clear communication, transparency, and flexibility to meet our customers' unique needs, ensuring satisfaction while maintaining operational excellence.

As Ukraine's ports regain momentum, we're here to help you navigate challenges and keep your operations running smoothly. Trust us to be by your side and ensure your business stays strong — today and for the brighter days ahead.  

Our comprehensive suite of services, combined with our deep understanding of the local market, positions us as a trusted partner for businesses seeking reliability and adaptability in Ukraine's maritime sector.
