About ALACOR

  ALACOR, a Kiev-based property investor and developer, was founded 4 years ago and is managed in accordance with best international practice of corporate governance.

• ALACOR's 2 individual founders benefit from over 12 years of successful business experience in various industries in Ukraine.

• We position ourselves as the local partner for the international investors.

• Our excellent contacts developed in the last decade ensure the strength of our position in the market that enables us to effectively mitigate most of the local risks.

Some examples of our past business experience:

• Development of the complex tolling schemes for the trade of raw materials, steel and oil products with the major Ukrainian steel plants. As a result we were managed to concentrate a 25% ownership in the largest Ukrainian steel producer. This 25% share package was successfully sold at the peak market price.

• Development of petrol stations chain that was one of the largest in Ukraine (120 units). Firstly, part of the company was sold to an institutional fund to create a fully institutional business structure in a very complicated local business sector and then we sold 100% of the business in the deep crisis time to TNK-BP in 2009.

• Development of the new production format in Ukraine - steel processing mill (added value products made from raw steel plate) with developed sales to the EU and the US and output of 100,000 tons per year; the business was subsequently sold to a strategic local investor

Our success in various industries over the last 12 years leads to invest in our latest venture:
