We are thrilled to announce a new and exciting partnership between Vesper and UkrAgroConsult, Ukraine’s leading private agricultural commodity market analyst and information provider. Through this partnership, Vesper users will gain exclusive access to frequently updated vessel line-up data from Ukraine and Russia, specifically focusing on *vegetable oils, oilseeds, meals, grains, and pulses. 

UkrAgroConsult was established 30 years ago to meet the growing demand of both domestic and international traders for reliable commodity price information. As Ukraine’s first private agricultural market analyst, UkrAgroConsult has set the standard in providing comprehensive market reports on the Black Sea and Danube grains and oilseeds, logistics, and the agrifood industry, covering over 10 countries. Their market analysis, available through daily and weekly subscriptions, serves more than 2,000 clients worldwide.

UkrAgroConsult collaborates with a variety of government agencies and esteemed international organizations, including the IFC, GAFTA, Ukrainian Grain Association, and the American Chamber of Commerce. They maintain close communication with government statistics and meteorological services, ensuring their data is both accurate and timely.

As part of this partnership, Vesper users will now have exclusive access to regularly updated vessel line-up data from Ukraine and Russia, with a particular emphasis on vegetable oils, oilseeds, meals, grains, and pulses. This data includes detailed information such as:

  • Port of Export: Identify where shipments are originating.
  • Port of Import: Track the destination ports.
  • Sailing Dates: Monitor shipping schedules.
  • Type of Cargo: Understand the specifics of the goods being transported.
  • Quantity: Gauge the volume of shipments.
  • Country of Origin and Destination: Map out the trade routes.
  • Shippers Information: Gain insights into the entities involved (when available)


With this latest addition, we now provide comprehensive coverage of the Black Sea region and its trade flows, crucial for anyone involved in the vegetable oil market. The vessel line-up data, updated weekly, delivers real-time insights that are far more current than the monthly updates from customs or import/export data, which can often be delayed by over a month.

For traders, buyers, and sellers of vegetable oils, having access to real-time data on what is being exported from key countries like Ukraine and Russia offers a significant competitive advantage. Knowing which shipments are leaving ports, their volumes, and their destinations allows you to anticipate supply shifts and price movements more accurately. This is particularly important in a highly competitive market where Russia and Ukraine vie for dominance in vegetable oil exports.
