Ukrainian honey has become one of the tops exported food products.
Tuesday, October 5, 2021
Whilst we may see the main export goods for Ukraine are grain and iron ore, the export of honey is growing in both capacity and quality product. In 2020, Ukraine exported 80.8 thousand tons of honey, which is 45% more than in 2019. In recent years, the volume of honey production has increased twenty-fold. The export markets are the USA, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Malaysia, Lebanon, and Great Britain (DP World TIS). This growth means that Ukraine is becoming a leader in honey production in Europe, and challenging other honey producers.
