In this publication authors have evaluated seaports performance in Ukraine as part of transport infrastructure. It is highlighted that in modern conditions development of seaports as multifunctional entities capable of performing intermodal transportation, has a strategic impact on the country and might increase its competitiveness at international level. Peculiarities of port industry development in modern economic conditions and main problematic issues are defined, among which: low congestion of port facilities; irregular mechanism of public-private partnership; loss of transit flows by seaports; low level of digitalization in the area of transport and logistics activities; insufficient level of technical, technological and environmental safety in seaports. Strategic priorities of port industry development are substantiated, considering foreign experience and modern requirements of the world community.
