Ukraine leads in cranberry exports
Even without specialized plantations for growing cranberries, Ukraine holds a leading position among cranberry-exporting countries, ranking in the top 10 global suppliers.
Ukraine continues to maintain stable positions in the global market for organic berries, particularly cranberries and blueberries. This was emphasized by Olha Denyshchyk, coordinator of the Zukkova Foundation, which focuses on protecting nature reserves.
The demand for Ukrainian cranberries is growing, as environmentally friendly products grown in natural conditions are particularly popular in international markets.
“Cranberries harvested from bogs are organic and not subjected to chemical treatment, which enhances their quality and demand in the international market. Therefore, preserving and sustainably developing bog areas is important not only for ecosystem conservation but also for economic support,” said Olha Denyshchyk.
In addition to cranberries, Ukraine actively exports blueberries, which are used in yogurt production in Europe.
Further development of the grain and oilseed markets of Ukraine and the Black Sea region will be in the spotlight of the BLACK SEA GRAIN. KYIV conference, taking place on April 22–23 in Kyiv. The event will focus on strategic directions for the agricultural sector through 2030, including investments, energy independence, processing, and exports of high-value products.
