GYUMRI, JULY 29, ARMENPRESS: Armenian, Georgian, Turkish and
Azerbaijani producers will create joint "Caucasian" new brands. The
businessmen of these countries have already produced "Caucasian
Cheese" joint product. By the way, Azerbaijan joined the program quite
recently. The first exposition of "Caucasian Cheese" took place two
years ago in Gyumri.
Director of the "Caucasian Center for Conflict Solution" Artush
Lazarian said this is more a "diplomatic step" when businessmen
are trying to establish business ties on their own. During the last
meeting of the businessmen, which took place in Tbilisi July 17-21,
more than 20 businessmen from Armenia, Georgia, Turkey and Azerbaijan
intended to create also joint honey, wine, tea and jams products.
"This program really changes stereotypes among the countries. If you
had seen what contacts and exchange of information was taking place
between the Armenian and Azerbaijani cheese makers, you would have
been convinced of the usefulness of the programs. I think if we were
able to build relations with our neighbors in such tempos we would
have lived in peaceful Caucasus," A. Lazarian noted.
The initiators of the program are aimed at exporting new products
to Europe. The program is being implemented on the initiative of
"Business and Development Caucasian Network".
