First international conference "Potato of Ukraine - 2009"

"Potato of Ukraine -2009" is the first conference in Ukraine which will gather nearly 100-120 potato business professionals. This event will be held in western region of Ukraine and gather all domestic producers and sellers.

The place of the conference was chosen because of several reasons. In the first place, Lvov is a unique trade centre of Ukraine. Trade ways from Romania, Poland, Belarus, Russia which Ukraine uses in fruit and vegetable produce trade are crossed in Lvov. In the second place, regional agrarian and marketing centre (RAC) "Shuvar" situated on the territory of the first-rate wholesale market of Ukraine includes all necessary modern infrastructure for wholesale and retail trade of commodities, negotiations, conferences and exhibitions.

Besides, Lvov is one of the first-rate tourist and cultural centers of Ukraine.

Potato theme is very important because potatoes rank the first place in production of fresh fruits and vegetables in Ukraine. This segment is highly developed in European countries and domestic producers have to improve their work to make the business effective.
