According to Papoyan, Armenian goods are comparable in quality to those available on the European market and meet the highest standards, holding GLOBALG.A.P. certificates and other necessary documents.
"We have made significant progress in improving the business environment and raising quality standards. "Today, many Armenian companies are ready not only to increase exports but also to build long-term partnerships with European buyers," the minister noted, according to a press release.
