Last week, Denmark opened a Consulate in the Armenian capital
Yerevan.The new Consul, Armand Pinarbasi, is a successful business
executive from one of the international consulting and auditing
companies. He is well placed to advise Danish companies interested in
exploring this market. The Consul has extensive contacts in business
and in government, i.a. through the influential French-Armenian
community.
Consul Pinarbasi recommends Armenia as an interesting testing ground
for companies looking at possibilities for doing business in the CIS.
There are opportunities for Danish solutions, particularly in energy
saving and in the agricultural sector.
Denmark's trade with the Republic of Armenia is modest and the Armenian
market is small (population: 3 mio). But new developments are under way
as Armenia turns more towards Europe. Armenia's trade with the EU now
surpasses its trade with the traditional ally, Russia. EU and Armenia
have started negotiations on a Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade
Agreement. All political parties competing for places in the upcoming
parliamentary elections share the goal of getting closer to European
norms and standards in order to develop and reform the economy.
As part of this policy, Armenia has recently opened an Embassy in
Copenhagen to promote Armenian interests in Scandinavia.
