So when the UN World Food Program announced a call to supply humanitarian aid to Ukraine and was looking for partners, we offered our in-house capabilities for delivery across the country. I express my gratitude to the UN for the trust in our company. All funds received for the provision of services will also be used to help our country», — said Viktor Ivanchyk, CEO of Astarta Holding N.V.
