Tea market in Ukraine
Most specialists estimate today’s volume of tea
market of Ukraine under 15 thousand tons, which makes
up about 7.5 billion conventional cups a year. Calm and
democratic tea market can not ensure quick capital
circulation, as alcoholic beverages or tobacco goods
can.
And to become a direct supplier of tea from abroad
one should have the stock of a couple of hundreds of
thousands of American dollars. That is why investors
got really interested in tea business in Ukraine only
some two or three years ago, when all the most
attractice spheres of commerce were already either
full, or their profitability went considerably down.
It was in 1997 that state also came to think about
existence of this market. As the result of it customs
duty for import of packed tea grew 20% up, as if
letting know that the epoch of tea business came.
