SectorRiseUkraine Trade Mission to Prague

Delegation members met with Vitalii Usatyi, Minister-Counselor of the Ukrainian Embassy in the Czech Republic. The discussion focused on opportunities to strengthen economic ties between the two countries, strategies for Ukrainian businesses to enter the Czech market, and the challenges companies face in the current environment.

A key part of the mission was a meeting with Tomáš Kopečný, during which Ukrainian companies presented their products and discussed export-related issues. The Czech government expressed strong support for economic cooperation, citing successful partnerships.

One stage of the mission included a meeting between Ukrainian and Czech entrepreneurs. The ministry presented its initiatives to support Ukraine and facilitated B2B negotiations with the participation of the Ukrainian-Czech Chamber of Commerce (UKRCHAM) and Business Club Ukraine.

One of the key industries represented in the mission was furniture and woodworking. Delegation members had the opportunity to visit TON a.s., a globally recognized Czech chair manufacturer known for its expertise in bentwood furniture and innovative designs.

The delegation also explored the operations of Dybok, a Ukrainian furniture supermarket chain successfully operating in the Czech Republic. These visits provided valuable insights into the Czech furniture industry and potential areas for further cooperation.

In addition to official meetings, representatives from EEN Czechia shared valuable insights into the Czech business climate, helping Ukrainian companies develop more effective market entry strategies.

The trade mission served as an excellent platform for establishing new connections, strengthening economic partnerships, and expanding opportunities for Ukrainian businesses.

We are grateful to all organizers, partners, and participants for a productive visit and look forward to taking the next steps in deepening cooperation between Ukraine and the Czech Republic.
