Eventually, Garik left the oil business and moved on to development. Korogodsky is still engaged in commercial real estate and has focused on Kyiv.
The first project is the Aquarium fitness center, which was opened in 2000. To do this, Korogodsky and Melamud bought an old swimming pool in the Obolon district. The acquisition and reconstruction cost $ 7 million.
In May 2001, the Globus shopping center (37,000 m2 near Independence Square) was opened, which became the most expensive in Ukraine. Rental rates per square meter rose from 50-60 to 150-200 dollars (before the global financial and economic crisis). But back in 2007, Globus was sold to the British foundation London & Regional Properties. The amount of the deal was not disclosed. According to independent estimates, the value of this property was $ 200 million

In 1994, Garik earned his first million. In addition to success and the usual market failures, in the "disaster of the nineties" he suffered racketeering and bloody attacks. Because of this, Korogodsky hid in Israel for several months. The family lived there for 10 years.
In 1995, Garik moved to Kyiv to sell computer equipment purchased in Singapore. Later, he and his partners established oil supplies in Ukraine, founding Alfa-Nafta, a representative office of the Russian company Alfa-Group, with which they worked for 2 years.
Then Garik and his partner Oleksandr Melamud traded in oil and built a vertically integrated structure (purchased seven regional oil products from 300 gas stations) for the ARCH group. Later, businessmen worked with the Privat group, buying shares of oil refineries for it.

In Moscow, in addition to legal part-time work (for example, in the bus fleet), Korogodsky was also engaged in prohibited or semi-legal activities at the time: speculating on theatrical tickets, reselling caviar and coffee in trucks and cars. With the legalization of individual entrepreneurship in the USSR, speculation became a legitimate business and Garik moved to a new level. Thus, in 1987 he resold computer equipment: the first computer sold, after six months of unsuccessful attempts to sell, allowed to pay debts and earn another 6 thousand rubles
