Director of Likvor CJSC Sergey Matevosyan said that local medicines
cover 10% of the Armenian pharmaceutical market.
"We should conceive that pharmaceutics is a strategic field and it
should be developed in Armenia," Matevosyan said after a visit to
the company's new industrial unit with Armenian Minister of Economy
Tigran Davtyan.
Matevosyan added that Likvor company operates for 20 years and is
the leader in medicines production in the Armenian market. According
to him, 35% of the company's output is exported to eight countries,
while the new unit's launch will allow expanding the export volume
and geography.
Matevosyan reported that the new building's construction started in
September 2009 and the basic construction works are finished.
According to him, the estimated cost of the project makes around
$3.5-4mln, most of which has been already invested.
The emergency response team of the Armenian government approved an
AMD 900mln lax credit to the company in 2009, of which the company
has already received 400mln, while the third tranche at the amount
of AMD 150mln will be transferred soon.
