    Armenia imports over 1 ton of guanabana this year

    16:42 * 26.08.14


    Armenia has imported over one ton of guanabana since January.

    Speaking to Tert.am, a press secretary for the Agriculture Ministry's
    State Food Security Service, Armine Sukiasyan, said a considerable
    part of the exotic fruit - one ton - came from Columbia; another six
    kilograms were imported from China.

    Ashot Agaghabyan, a businessman MP affiliated with the ruling
    Republican faction in parliament, had earlier told the local daily
    Zhoghovurd that he had signed an exceptional agreement in Ecuador to
    facilitate the import of a guanabana additive that helps treat and
    prevent cancer and AIDS. The paper said that the fruit was first
    imported to Armenia by Artak Sargsyan, the owner of the supermarket
    chain SAS.

    The market price of guanabana is within the range of 80-100 Drams/kg
    ($0.19-$0.24)

    Guanabana is grown in Africa, South America and in tropical countries.
