Alongside with the operating companies, DCH’s investment portfolio includes assets that have been forced to cease operations due to the destruction and safety measures. These include Kharkiv’s Karavan shopping center, Kharkiv Palace Hotel and Kharkiv International Airport.
"The war has a significant impact on all DCH businesses without exception. Due to the constant shelling of Kharkiv and endless destruction, we had to suspend the project to restore the damaged Karavan shopping center and the project to clear the rubble of destroyed buildings, recycle them and restore them, which was planned to involve the Italian company DESPE S.p.A., a foreign expert in performing such complex work. As for the damaged Kharkiv Palace Hotel, we are currently assessing the damage and engaging design organizations for future reconstruction. Despite this, DCH Group continues to make a significant contribution to the country’s economic sustainability and is one of the largest taxpayers," emphasized DCH CEO Yana Malysh.
Today, DCH Group employs more than 7.7 thousand people. 919 employees of the group joined the Armed Forces of Ukraine. 43 of them, unfortunately, died at war.
