Meet Incredible Craft Bag, a platform for craft producers from all over Ukraine

Ukrainian manufacturers have faced a number of challenges over the last years, but despite all the difficulties, they continue to work selflessly and support the country's economy.

The events after full-scale russian invation in Ukraine clearly showed that local business in the areas affected by hostilities is often the only hope and support for people, and today it continues to unite communities and provide for the victory. Having your own business is also a stimulus and great support for the local economy.

The "Incredible Craft Bag" project is a follow up of the competition "Incredible Villages of Ukraine" which was launched 7 years ago by Agroportal.UA to develop the tourism potential of rural areas and green tourism. The "craft bag" gathered the treats from different regions of Ukraine cooked with local recipes, they show the hospitality and diverse taste of craft food. Now you can not only travel to incredible villages, but also taste their delicious and authentic products, order them for your loved ones and friends.

The "Incredible craft bag" platform is currently available for Ukraine and it contains goods from 28 Ukrainian producers that can be orders in social media directly from the Ukrainian villages, where the productions are located.
