Ukraine has opened its first agricultural hub in Ghana as part of the Food from Ukraine initiative. The project is intended to strengthen the region's food security and create new opportunities for cooperation.
Agrohub as a new model of cooperation
Ukraine has taken another step in the development of global food support by opening an agrohub in Ghana as part of the Food from Ukraine initiative, the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine reports. The project is designed not only to provide the region with products, but also to lay the foundation for a long-term partnership.
The agency notes that the new center will contribute to the development of local recycling and the creation of economic opportunities in West Africa.
According to Minister Oleksiy Sobolev, even in times of war, Ukraine maintains its role in ensuring global food security and offers partners a new format of cooperation focused on sustainable development.
Please note! The Agrohub was opened thanks to the Memorandum of Cooperation signed by the Ministry of Economy and the Ministry of Food and Agriculture of Ghana during the Food from Ukraine conference on November 19, 2025.
How will the new center work?
The Agrohub will combine Ukrainian products with goods available on the local market. On this basis, food kits will be formed for further distribution among the population.
In the future, the center will develop the areas of packaging, portioning, and product processing. This will allow creating added value directly in the region.
Interestingly, the first kits have already included local rice, as well as pasta made in Ghana from Ukrainian flour. This approach demonstrates a new model of cooperation, where humanitarian aid becomes the basis for economic development.
Turkey is preparing to reduce purchases of an important Ukrainian product: why will exports fall?
-
Ukraine significantly increased barley exports to Turkey, increasing volumes 4.6 times in the first nine months of the 2025–2026 marketing year.
-
Demand for Ukrainian barley in Turkey is expected to fall due to the planned increase in domestic barley production in that country in 2026.
