YEREVAN, November 12. /ARKA/. The Government must held Armenia
producers to export their products to various parts of the world,
RA President Serge Sargsyan told reporters during his visit to the
8th international food exhibition Armprodexpo-2008, which was opened
in Yerevan yesterday.
About 60 processing enterprises, local and foreign commercial
organizations, advertising agencies and media outlets display their
products.
"I have good, but mixed, impressions of the exhibition as the quality
of the agricultural produce and of processed products is a pleasure
to the eye.
On the other hand, there arises a question: why aren't high-quality
goods exported to various parts of the world?" the President said.
Sargsyan pointed out that he recently visited the Ararat region and
talked to representatives of the local processing enterprises.
"We agreed that in increasing the yield and selling it the Government
and the processing industry must constantly be beside the farmers. And
the Government must always assist the processing industry at the
stage of sale," he said.
The RA President also stressed the need for creating new brands. "Along
with the world-famous Armenian brandy and apricots, Armenian pickles,
pepper, goat's and sheep's cheese and other delicious dishes must
become known," Sargsyan said. Armenian President urged journa lists
to help in this process because "advertising is one of the best
instruments."
The Armprodexpo-2008 exhibition was organized by the RA Ministry of
Agriculture, RA Foreign Office, Yerevan Municipality, Chamber of
Commerce and Industry of Armenia and the Agribusiness Development
Center CJSC.
