"We already have many clients from the building and we're reinforcing our manpower," said the café's manager, Anna Tkachenko.
"This is Aroma's third branch in Kiev, and we opened it about half a year after the second one. It wasn't easy, but we understood from our customers that they're waiting for us and that we mustn't stop," added the chain's CEO in Ukraine, Yaakov Lifshitz.
