Place of Birth, Education

He was born in 1985 in Odesa.

He received higher education at the Odessa Agrarian University.

Career

He began to receive his first earnings back in the 1990s, engaged in cargo transportation and construction work. In 1996, he founded the closed joint-stock company “Astoria” with an authorized capital of 18.7 million hryvnias, although the company was later liquidated.

By the end of the 2000s, his business interests were focused mainly on road construction. In 2005, he registered a limited liability company (LLC) “Shlyahovyk-97”, and in 2006 he founded LLC “Avtomagistral-Pivden”.

Boyko’s business received a significant impetus for development thanks to the implementation of the project for the construction of infrastructure for Euro 2012. According to the entrepreneur himself, the Avtomagistral-Pivden company repaired more roads than the Donetsk company Altkom, which at that time was a leader in the road industry.

Under the presidency of Volodymyr Zelenskyy , Avtomagistral-South became the main private contractor within the framework of the state program “Great Construction”. At the same time, Shlyahovyk-97 LLC, also controlled by Boyko, gained a reputation as the largest supplier of building materials and equipment for Avtomagistrali.

Avtomagistral-Pivden is also one of the founders of the National Association of Road Workers of Ukraine, where Boyko holds the position of vice president.
