The port operator in Odesa region complains about unfair quotas from USPA

Odesa port operators suffer from uneven distribution of quotas for receiving ships.

A new scandal broke out due to the “Plan of accepting ships by port operators in MP “Pivdennyi” from USPA”. Thus, grain traders cannot handle the necessary number of vessels for grain export. As a result, agribusiness stops working – due to the lack of storage and shipment of finished products.

Thus, since January, the Ukrainian sunflower oil producer Allseeds barely received permission to process the small vessel Torc – with a deadweight of only 12,000 tons. At the same time, several more vessels with a much larger tonnage are ignored for weeks.

“Despite all the efforts that the management puts into the work of the enterprise in the conditions of martial law, some representatives of the authorities are doing something wrong and wrong. The result of this excellent work is that the Allseeds EEZ has been completely stopped. Half a thousand people and their families are going on unpaid vacations,” the company’s press center said.

Instead, unprofitable enterprises receive ship processing permits. In particular, quotas for receiving three vessels were received by the Odesa Port Plant, which has not been operating for over a year.
