The Kyiv — Odesa route is one of Ukraine’s most popular freight directions, connecting the capital with the country’s main port hub on the Black Sea. The M-05 motorway, about 480 kilometres long, provides a direct link between the two cities and is strategically important for export-import operations. The main cargoes on this direction are grain and oilseeds (from central regions to the ports for export), container freight (from the ports to Kyiv warehouses), foodstuffs, construction materials and consumer goods. During the harvest season the traffic intensity grows several times over. The average travel time for trucks is 6-8 hours. CarGoPro helps carriers quickly find cargo in both directions, minimising empty runs, while the tender system makes it possible to win contracts for regular trips.
