This week, we held negotiations with the management of a large Italian construction company interested in entering the Ukrainian market and establishing a branch there.
Besides Italy, the company has experience participating in infrastructure construction projects in Albania, Romania, and Africa under UN programs.
The company's main focus is the construction of roads, bridges, industrial facilities, and warehouses.
Several years ago, the head of the company visited Ukraine on a business trip and noted the potential of the Ukrainian market.
The Italians were interested in issues of organizing and running a construction business in Ukraine in today's conditions, participating in tenders, registering a company, taxes, investing and withdrawing capital, the labor market, hiring personnel, conditions for purchasing and leasing machinery and equipment, and obtaining permits for construction work, development of project documentation, fixed and one-time costs, and other topics.
We discussed the situation in the Ukrainian construction industry, the experience of similar companies, the risks, the most preferable areas for developing such businesses, and some legal and administrative aspects of the activity.
The parties agreed to continue contacts, prepare responses to the questions asked, and provide information on the above.
