Salt became the main topic in the purchases of Ukravtodor
From December 17 to December 23, 121,000 procurement messages worth UAH 21.6 billion were published in the Prozorro system. Ukravtodor and local authorities ordered repairs of roads and bridges worth UAH 2 billion, or 9% of all weekly purchases. The largest contracts totaling UAH 880 million were received by Onur group companies for repairs in the Lviv and Poltava regions, which were not occupied and where there was no significant damage, write Our money.
By the end of the year, there was a sharp increase in the number of smaller purchases, and customers increased the number of concluded contracts by 20% over the week. And on these purchases, in the struggle for relatively small amounts, sparks are more powerful than on Ukravtodor's long-determined purchases.
For example, an interesting story unfolded on the purchase of road salt for UAH 16.5 million by the utility company Vinnytsia Track Administration with truck delivery to the customer. And even before the auction, deviations began here, appeals to the Antimonopoly Committee, during which it turned out:
- The customer demanded that they bring him salt without packaging (in bulk), ground with grains up to 4.0 mm (over 4.0 mm – no more than 15%), with an anti-caking additive (up to 150 g/t). One of the participants of Reliable Transport Company LLC submitted a certificate for its salt from a Turkish manufacturer, which did not contain an anti-caking agent at all. And then the customer decided: “Well, we actually didn’t demand very strictly that the supplied salt clearly met our requirements, we actually didn’t require a single document to confirm the salt’s compliance, the supplier’s word of honor was enough that he would eventually bring something , what do you need. And we didn't require a certificate, so it doesn't matter what is written there. Let it be.
- The customer said that he did not see in the model charter of one of the complaining firms, Salz LLC, its activities. And he ignored the decision of the founder of the company provided as part of the tender offer, in which all the necessary KVEDs were indicated. But when it came to considering the charter of the Reliable Transport Company, which also did not indicate the types of activities, this time the customer found in its TP another document, extracting from the EDRPOU, in which these types were indicated. And he allowed it.
- The customer demanded that the salt be delivered to its train by car, and demanded that the participants confirm the availability of the appropriate “technological complex of machines and mechanisms.” But it turned out that he did not demand that there must be a truck in this complex. Therefore, he allowed the same Reliable Transport Company LLC to participate in the auction, which reported the presence of three Porsche Macan and Porsche Cayenne cars, one grain car, laptops and a printer. Nenuash, one and a half thousand tons of salt can be transported on a Porsche))) Although, in fact, you can order the services of carriers. And therefore, the requirement to have some kind of vehicles is generally far-fetched.
Because of appeals, four companies participated in the auction and two of them won the right to negotiate. They offered lower prices but one of them failed to confirm their win and will lose their 165,000 hryvnia guarantee. The other company was rejected for not providing required documents. Both companies offered Turkish salt.
Zio Sport LLC was declared the winner without any appeals. They provided a document from November 2021 showing cooperation with Costanza LLC, the official dealer of Artemsoli. The Artemsoli plant was damaged and stopped working in spring 2022, so cheap Ukrainian salt in Ukrainian stores was replaced with more expensive Turkish and Georgian salt.
But, perhaps, in some warehouses there are leftovers stored at last year's prices. Or maybe not. Since Vinnitsa ordered one and a half thousand tons, this is really a lot. Therefore, it is still a big question what will actually be brought to the Vinnytsia vouchers, which did not require a clear confirmation of the quality of the delivered goods.
Zio Sport LLC belongs to Igor Zyubrik, a Lviv entrepreneur. He was previously arrested for suspicion of selling low-quality sand mixture in Lviv and his firms were involved in selling goods to Ukrzaliznytsia at inflated prices. However, these issues faded away and Zyubrik continues his activities.
Vinnitsa residents can buy Artemiv salt from Zio Sport for UAH 11,280 per ton including delivery. UAH 2,280 of this amount is for road delivery. The salt's cost at the unloading place will be UAH 9,000 per ton, which is not excessively high. Prozorro has many deals around this price.
Kostanza sold UAH 1.8 million worth of salt to Avtodor residents in Kalush at UAH 10,700 per ton along with truck delivery. This is only half a thousand hryvnias cheaper than the Vinnytsia price of Costanza's partners. Businesses compete fiercely for small margins to survive, unlike some larger organizations.
