The company expects that 3-4 years will pass from the beginning of the design to the commissioning of the complex. The state-owned enterprise plans to implement both projects using its own funds, without attracting loans.

Investments can amount to about UAH 500 million per year. In July the port of Yuzhny handled 1,492,000 tons of cargo. In particular, 1,297,000 tons of iron ore were handled.

The company said that the volume of export cargo amounted to 1,338,000 tons. This figure exceeds the July 2020 result by 21%.
