"Of course, we have plans to expand production. Thus, we plan to make maximum use of unused land for olive production, especially here - on the Absheron Peninsula and in some other areas of Azerbaijan," said President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev at the opening of the largest in the region olive oil and table olive products processing plant owned by “Abşeron Zeytun Bağlari" Limited Liability Company (LLC) in Zira settlement, Khazar district, Baku, APA reports.
"We may need to expand production in the near future. I think that this is why our cooperation with your company will be of strategic importance. Because there is potential here - in Absheron, as well as in the liberated areas. Of course, all this will be evaluated from the point of view of soil, climate, productivity. But we have serious plans to become an important participant. We also have plans to create thousands of jobs and local manufacturing across the country," said President Ilham Aliyev.
