Products under the brand «Made in Uzbekistan» have been occupying a worthy place in the world market. The reason once again to witness this fact was the international exhibition World Food Expo Korea-2016 in Seoul that presented products of Uzbek companies.
Today, Uzbekistan is among the top ten world exporters of apricots, plums, grapes, nuts, cabbage and other fruits and vegetables. More than 180 types of fruits and vegetables as well as processed products are exported to world markets. Over the past three years the volume of agricultural products supplied to foreign markets has tripled.
The regular participation of the business community in international fairs and exhibitions contributes to the identification of new markets for local products and services. World Food Expo Korea-2016 was no exception.
It was attended by hundreds of firms and companies from nearly twenty countries. In addition to the food, they presented the latest achievements in the field of growing and processing of agricultural products.
Visiting the national stand of Uzbekistan, guests personally got convinced of the possibilities of our country in the field of food production. As a result of the participation of Uzbek producers in the Fair, export contracts worth more than $ 200 thousand have been signed, and agreement were reached on the establishment of relations and development of cooperation with firms and companies from different countries.
Assessing the visit, members of the Uzbek delegation noted that the World Food Expo Korea-2016 is a great opportunity to showcase their services, establish economic and trade cooperation with business circles of foreign countries, to strengthen existing links, reach agreements on the export of products and services, development and implementation of promising projects to attract investment to our country, to explore the international market.
