Managing a local business during war time (based on LLC Trade House Agroforward case)

Abstract

Today, not only the Ukrainian trade business but also the world business is in a crisis due to the military aggression of the Russian Federation in Ukraine. Hundreds of domestic companies were forced to suspend their activities or retrain due to the new realities, where our country has been living for more than a year. That is why the study of business management in the languages of war is a topical research topic, which will ensure the further development of domestic entrepreneurship. The government of Ukraine introduced the following conditions for Ukrainian business, thanks to which enterprises were able to adapt to normal work during the war. This paper considers examples of the same specific measures of the government that can be used by domestic companies in order not only not to stop their activities, but also to increase their sales volumes. For instance, what opportunities are provided to agricultural companies for effective work and export of agricultural products, what foreign financial aid is offered by partner countries, etc. The paper also analyzes the risks on the example of the LLC Trade House Agroforward, which must be taken into account in the process of managing enterprises during wartime.
