The large-scale National Exhibition of the Republic of Belarus is presented at the international exhibitions InterFood and CaspianAgro Azerbaijan, which are held simultaneously in Baku.

From May 15 to 17, the Republic of Azerbaijan is a key center for meetings of foreign partners, business representatives and government delegations.

The opening ceremony of the exhibitions was attended by Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of Belarus Igor Petrishenko, Chairman of the Belarusian Chamber of Commerce and Industry Mikhael Miatlikov, invited leaders of leading domestic enterprises, representatives of government bodies and branch departments.

"Belarus actively participates in the Caspian Agro and InterFood exhibitions every year. Today, Belarusian companies present meat, dairy, confectionery, fish, alcohol products, and other types of food, as well as fertilizers, plant protection chemicals, veterinary drugs, a wide range of agricultural machinery, and tire products. Mutual trade between Belarus and Azerbaijan in food products is intensively developing and makes a significant contribution to ensuring food security in both countries," Deputy Prime Minister Igor Petrishenko said.

According to Mikhail Myatlikov, Chairman of the Belarusian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, this year Belarus's pavilion is the largest among other national stands. "It covers almost 300 square meters. Our stands feature food products, agricultural machinery, and, of course, petrochemicals, including fertilizers used in agriculture," he said.

Participation in Caspian Agro and Interfood Azerbaijan allows Belarusian enterprises to showcase their products not only to the residents of Azerbaijan but also to representatives of many other countries. Over the years of participation, more than two hundred Belarusian companies have presented their products at the exhibitions. Here they have found partners and successfully cooperate with them.

"Last year, there were 15,000 visitors representing 38 countries worldwide, so it's not just an opportunity to present oneself in Azerbaijan – it's a chance to introduce a company to other countries as well," the Chairman of the Belarusian Chamber of Commerce and Industry noted.

This year, within the framework of the National Exhibition organized by the exhibition enterprise "Belinterexpo" of the Belarusian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Belarusian enterprises present a wide range of products in the food and industrial sectors.

During the large-scale exhibition forum in Baku, a busy business program is planned, including thematic business platforms for partner meetings and negotiations with foreign representatives.

For instance, following the ceremonial opening of the agricultural forum, a document signing ceremony took place, where twenty contracts, memorandums, and agreements were signed totaling 54 million US dollars.

 

InterFood is the largest specialized exhibition of food and beverage producers, technologies, and equipment for food production in Azerbaijan.
