project background

alt text

BKW Group Agricultural Holding has been manufacturing and supplying agricultural resources for years. The company has built an active agribusiness ecosystem in Ukraine to provide logistics services, grow crops, and export agricultural products abroad. That became possible through the cooperation of more than ten enterprises within the holding and the involvement of more than seven thousand partners.

In the era of widespread digitalization, the interaction speed and efficiency requirements are getting more and more stringent. BKW Group management has decided to keep up with these processes and update the infrastructure dramatically for continuous business growth.
