Armenian exports are currently experiencing their best times. Every year the statistics of exports from the country increases and reaches its record figures. At the same time, not only the number of products that are exported from Armenia is increasing, but also the number of countries importing Armenian goods.
What is the reason for such an increase in popularity in the world and what can Armenian products boast of?
History and cultural heritage
No development is possible without a foundation from which to build. And in our case, this is not just a jump bar, but an important component at all stages of the process.
Given the centuries-old ancient history of Armenia, the high demand and popularity of many Armenian products is not surprising. Traditions and technologies that have been passed down from generation to generation, improving every year, have become a powerful base for modern production in Armenia.
Geographic location and climate
Territory and weather conditions are also important. Armenia is a rather rocky country, but at the same time, due to the volcanic rocks in the ground, vineyards grow beautifully, which ensures the powerful production of alcoholic beverages and their export, respectively. Due to the southern climate and a large number of sunny days, the ripened fruits are especially sweet with a high percentage of sugar in them, which affects the taste of any end result – be it wine or dried fruits.
Also, thanks to the above facts, Armenia is rich in its endemic representatives of flora and fauna, that is, unique species that exist exclusively on the territory of the country. Such exclusivity also raises the demand for Armenian products and increases the amount of exports.
XXI century
Why is the popularity of Armenian products preserved even now?
Firstly, with the growth of tourism and information accessibility in general, there is an interest in Armenia and Armenian culture, which inevitably leads to an interest in cuisine and Armenian national products.
Secondly, these days there is a trend towards healthy food, eco products and organic production. All this can be found in Armenian products. At the same time, despite the fashion, the undying popularity of alcohol and tobacco products, is also satisfied with Armenian products. Thus, in Armenia there is a product for every taste.
And of course, it would not be superfluous to mention the Armenian population that lives outside the territory of Armenia. The number of the Armenian diaspora in the world is large, which always supports the demand for exports from Armenia, regardless of the global situation.
Tax system
Loyal customs legislation plays an important role. Exports from Armenia are especially beneficial for the EAEU member countries, where some customs payments are at a zero rate, not to mention the established logistics routes between countries.
