Ukraine has opened its first agro hub on the African continent — in the Republic of Ghana, Prime Minister Yuliya Svyrydenko reported.
As part of the president’s Food from Ukraine initiative, a Food Processing and Distribution Center has begun operating.
The agro hub was created by Ukrainian agribusiness in cooperation with the Government of Ghana as a result of agreements reached during the Food from Ukraine conference in November 2025.
This is a new format of Ukraine’s presence in the world, where humanitarian support is combined with the development of partnerships and the local economy.
Ukrainian products will be combined with local ones, food packages will be assembled, and their distribution will be ensured.
The next stage is to develop processing, packaging, and portioning directly in Ghana.
The first packages already include locally produced rice and pasta made in Ghana from Ukrainian flour.
During the opening, 4,000 food packages were handed over to the most vulnerable groups of the population — Ghanaian widows.
Ukraine sees Ghana as an important partner in West Africa for humanitarian support and the development of trade along the western coast of the African continent, and is ready to share expertise, technologies, and experience in increasing yields in order to strengthen global food security together.
