The Chambers of Commerce of Georgia and Armenia signed a cooperation
agreement at the end of the Georgian-Armenian business forum, which
was held within the framework of the official visit to Georgia of
the president of Armenia Robert Kocharyan.

The Chairman of the Commerce and Industrial Chamber of Georgia Jemal
Inaishvili declared that despite being neighbors, commodity trade
between Georgia and Armenia does not correspond to its real potential.
“The sides agreed to increase bilateral communications and to intensify
mutually advantageous cooperation,” he said. The Armenian companies
displayed foodstuffs, alcohol drinks and industrial goods at the
business-forum.

The Minister of Economy Kakha Bendukidze told Prime News that Armenian
investments in Georgia are very important for the country.
