The organic operators’ sales volumes were assessed. These were primarily the organic operators certified by Organic Standard. Since more than 95% of organic operators that produce and distribute organic products in Ukraine are certified by Organic Standard, these data are considered to be representative. The results of 2024 were also taken into account to assess how the companies operated in the current year. Due to the difficulties associated with the full-scale war, some companies have faced disruptions in production and supply. However, many companies are quickly adapting to the circumstances, changing their marketing strategies and expanding their product range.
