Why Does Agribusiness Need Professional Support?

Armenia is actively advancing its agricultural sector, providing incentives and programs to boost agribusinesses. Yet, operating in this field presents several challenges:

Market Access: Exporting agricultural goods, particularly to EAEU countries, involves complex customs and certification processes.
Financial Risks: Investments in agribusiness demand careful management and protection from legal vulnerabilities.
