Anton Myanovsky owns Gemini Espresso, a young, fast-growing coffee company. Following the Russian aggression in his own county, he saw the frontline approach his coffee plant in March 2022. Anton shares with us how he managed to relocate within a few days his business to Western Ukraine, with the support of a platform by the Bank Lviv and the solidarity of his competitors.
Bank Lviv has created a platform to support small businesses that were forced to relocate because of the war. The platform offers banking and business services. The setting up of the platform received support from the EIB ENTAFI Progamme. Additionally, volunteers from Bank Lviv offer advice free of charge to relocated businesses and connect entrepreners with local business communities.
