Today is an exceptionally important day for NOVO Technologies S.A. METRO CASH & CARRY UKRAINE has become our company’s client – our first contractor on the Ukrainian market. Negotiations began before the outbreak of the war and were inevitably interrupted in February 2022. This required our company to familiarise itself with the specifics of the Ukrainian market and local legal and tax solutions related to the commercial property management industry. METRO, in turn, thoroughly researched the market of solution providers supporting the settlement process in this industry before finally deciding on the solutions offered by NOVO.

We are delighted that the contract has been finalised after many months and years of negotiations. We hope that this is also a sign that, two and a half years after Russia’s aggression against Ukraine, trade relations with our neighbours are beginning to normalise and that they themselves believe that the conflict will come to an end. We feel honoured to be part of this process of change. METRO CASH & CARRY UKRAINE manages 26 large retail facilities. Our company faces a major challenge, not only because of the scale of the implementation, but also because of its specific nature. We are fully prepared to carry out the process and have strengthened our team with skills that will certainly speed up the implementation. And we hope that this is the first of many implementations that we will carry out on the Ukrainian market.
