The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine has passed a draft law aimed at simplifying the conditions for the production of distillates by small businesses. The law aims to stimulate the development and legalization of small entrepreneurship in the alcohol distillates and spirits production sector, and increase domestic production of high-value products. The law includes provisions such as determining the criteria for small distillate producers, reducing license costs, and allowing the use of all alcoholic distillates produced from agricultural products.
