A multimodal logistics hub called Horonda Platform will be built in the village of Horonda, Mukachevo district, Zakarpattia Oblast, to facilitate grain exports to the European Union. The project is being developed by Italian investors including FS Holding, Mercitalia Rail, and Mercitalia Terminal.

The so-called 'dry port' will be built in the village of Horonda in the Mukachevo district by Italian investors.

The creation of a land-based grain corridor in our region is a top priority of national importance. This project is particularly important during the war.

The new logistics hub can help Zakarpattia Oblast and Ukraine as a whole develop their export potential and will facilitate local agricultural producers' access to foreign markets.

As part of the project, transshipment of agricultural products from wide- to narrow-gauge railways will become possible, new storage facilities will be built, and storage containers for grain, sunflower oil, and other types of agricultural products will be made available.

Horonda Platform is expected to create more than 200 new jobs in the region.
