Ukraine applies EU-aligned food and plant-health rules through the DPSS, with customs cleared by your митний брокер, and importers have become experts in overland routing through EU ports. Importers in Kyiv, Lviv, Dnipro and Odesa work with Kohenoor International because:
Ukraine’s spice packers supply curry, khmeli-suneli-style and mixed spices to ATB, Silpo, Novus and Auchan, and fenugreek is a standard ingredient in Ukrainian and Georgian-style blends. The herbal and pharmacy channel — among the largest in Eastern Europe — sells пажитник seed, powder and tea for lactation, appetite and glycaemic support, and supplement makers use it in capsules. Kyiv’s Indian, Turkish, Arab and Central Asian communities buy methi, çemen and hulba through ethnic wholesalers.
Ukraine remains one of Europe’s largest poultry producers with a big premix and compound-feed industry where fenugreek is a palatant. Since 2022 importers have re-routed through Polish and Romanian ports and the Odesa corridor, and they favour suppliers who can deliver reliably with transit-ready paperwork. Supply has been Indian and Turkish; Ukrainian importers who want direct container pricing and complete DPSS documentation are qualifying Pakistan.
