Boryspil International Airport (Kyiv) plans to attract a large operator to implement an investment project of a large logistics center.

According to the press service of the airport, it is planned to allocate a significant territory in the second flight zone for building a center for processing aviation cargo.

"Creating a high-tech cargo hub of the European level is one of the tasks of the incumbent management of the state-owned enterprise," the report says.

At present the volume of cargo handling at Boryspil is insignificant - about 80 tonnes per day. Part of profit from freight handling does not exceed 2% of income from other activities. One of the main factors affecting this trend is the low solvency of Ukraine's population.

One of the options as an investor is considered Airport Kyiv Cargo, which carries out freight transportation by road.
