    DAI ASME HELPS ARMENIAN COMPANIES TO SEEK NEW MARKETS

    YEREVAN, APRIL 23, ARMENPRESS: Armenian companies showcased their
    products at around 20 international fairs with the support of
    Armenian Small and Medium Enterprises (ASME), a project implemented
    by Development Alternatives Inc (DAI), a USAID funded consulting
    firm.
    Garry Kilmer, the coordinator of this projected that was first
    launched in 2000, September, told Armenpress that studies are being
    made in Persian Gulf and Middle East markets, where some of
    Armenia-made products can compete with locally manufactured ones.
    "We are less interested in EU or US exhibitions as the great
    majority of Armenian companies do not yet have appropriate
    certificates to allow them to export their products to their markets,
    as food safety requirements are now much more stronger there than
    before, while many Armenian companies cannot yet meet these
    requirements," he said, adding that some 150 Armenian companies seek
    DAI ASME advice regularly.
    DAI ASME has helped a privately run food testing laboratory to get
    ISO certificate of a world-known Swiss SGS company, which Kilmer says
    is the sole such laboratory in the region.
