The flower business in Ukraine very much depends on the economic situation and the fact that there are visible improvements in the trade and activities in the sector means that the economic situate also improves.
The growing number of trade requests from Dutch producers and suppliers of floricultural products to the Agricultural Office in Kyiv also signals the growing interest of Dutch business in Ukraine.
