The meeting opened with the theme of consumer preferences and their impact on the development of FMCG retailers. Analysis proved to be quite interesting, as it demonstrated recent FMCG trends, retail turnover as a result of consumer behavior, characteristics of southern region development, expansion plans of retailers, as well as customer loyalty in times of crisis. By popular demand “Raben Ukraine” showed how the warehouse logistics work, so to speak inside look. What happens to the customer’s product, when it gets to the warehouse, stage by stage.The keynote theme of the meeting was exports. It turns out that the export is not that  difficult, it’s just enough, as they say, to examine the material part: because ignorance of the markets, consumer preferences, customs regulations and procedures, as well as product requirements are the obstacles that stop many companies on their way to conquer new markets. The meeting finished with the theme of changes in transport legislation within the framework of the Association Agreement with the EU.

"The audience was active and open to dialogue. We are very grateful to our guests and speakers for the exchange of experiences, new ideas and solutions implemented.
