Ukraine is an independent democratic country with market economy. On March 6th 2006 the U.S. House and Senate have repealed 32-year-old trade restrictions against Ukraine and extended permanent normal trade relations to the Eastern European Country of 47 million people. Ukraine had been sanctioned by the Jackson-Vanik amendment to the Trade Act of 1974. The leaders of the European Union and Ukraine met in Kiev on December 1st 2005 for the EU-Ukraine Summit. On trade and economic relations, leaders welcomed the European Commission's assessment that Ukraine has met the technical criteria for the granting of Market Economy Status (MES) for trade defence, and welcomed EU Member States' support for the granting of MES to Ukraine on that basis. |

Construction market shows the strongest growth. For the first half of 2006, total construction in Ukraine was reported at 14.5 billion UAH, up 6.5% relative to the same period a year ago www.ukrstat.gov.ua . 4.1 billion of them in the Ukrainian capital Kiev. The new mortgage law (passed December 2005) gave
to the Ukrainian banks base to provide mortgage placement service at the reasonable rates. This created the highest demand on residential building. For the first half of 2006, total 33.4M sq.ft. of apartments was built, up 10.2% relative to the same period a year ago. Both multifamily and single family housing construction recently started in massive scale in the suburbs of the big Ukrainian cities like Kiev. Strong interest to housing was triggered by changes in land related policies. Only in Kiev suburbs seven locations (100 hectares in total) were provided for villages' construction. It is expected that 2.1M sq.ft. of single family houses, townhouses and cottages will be built there. Low interest credits provided by European banks like Deutsche Banc or London Citibank allow finance heavy highway and bridges projects. Most of the big Ukrainian construction companies, like Kievgorstroy, T.M.M., UKOinvestbud, Zoloti Vorota, Poznyakijilstroy ended 2005 with high net profit. Companies in aggregates and construction materials showed the same strong performance. For the first half of 2006, the Ukrainian branches of Dyckerhoff Zement reported production of 906.4 thousand ton of cement, up 7.75% relative to the same period a year ago. There are a lot of plans for the future. For example City of Kiev is planning renovation of the industrial areas that were developed in the first half of the last century on historical suburbs of the City. Today locations of these areas are perfect for commercial building, offices, hotels and luxury residential buildings. This project is attracting attention of many international investors. At the first stage it is necessary to relocate existing facilities to the new industrial parks out of the City. The long-depressed manufacturing building is going to be on demand as the project starts.

Construction equipment is on demand. The main consumers of the construction equipment are big construction companies, road building companies, producers of aggregates and construction materials, municipalities. As a rule baying decision makers are companies headquarters. For example Kievgorstroy purchased construction equipment (cranes, concrete pumps etc.) for 33M UAH in 2005. Eurocement Group - Ukraine will spend 55.9M UAH for new equipment for its Balcem and Pushka plants in 2006 and 87.5M UAH in 2007. High natural gas prices are emerging implementation of energy saving brick facade cast-in-place monolith structure buildings. This technique could be cost effective only if achieving high production rate. Concrete pumps and mast climbers shall be on demand and they could be found on some construction sites already. Earth moving equipment manufacturers already successfully export their machines to Ukraine. Examples could be found in our reports from BuildTech 2004 and BuildTech 2005. New for Ukraine growth of housing construction shall ignite interest to compact Earth moving equipment, telehandlers, small compactors, trenchers, and pickup trucks. There is a huge potential for equipment rent business in Ukraine. Domestic equipment manufacturing would need a lot of investments and some time to refresh their product lines and increase productivity to the required level. Rental market is not developed in Ukraine yet. Most of the construction companies have this own fleets. Most of equipment is very outdated. Old cranes, excavators, backhoes and others need a lot of maintenance, repairs, parts and services. Equipment downtime is one of the biggest problems of the Ukrainian construction. Used equipment form Western Europe cannot solve the problem at all. Others East European countries already exhausted supply of it. |
