According to operational data, from January to September 2024, Ukrainian seaports handled 74 million tons of cargo. This is significantly more compared to the same period last year, when the volumes were 41.1 million tons.
This was reported by the press service of the Ukrainian Sea Ports Authority (AMPU).
A substantial portion of the cargo turnover—46.3 million tons—consists of agricultural products.
Specifically, September showed an increase in processed cargo to 7 million tons, which is nearly double the figures from September of last year, when 3.4 million tons were processed.
It is emphasized that the agricultural sector remains the leader in exports; in particular, 4.1 million tons of agricultural products were delivered to international markets in September.
As reported by UAprom, as of the end of August 2024, 7 million tons of cargo were handled by Ukrainian seaports, which is more than twice the corresponding figure for 2023 of 3.3 million tons.
