RA Ministry of Trade and Economic Development conducts checks at
the Armenian poultry factories at least three times a year. Georgi
Gyozalian, Deputy Head of the Inspection, stated this at the March
15 press conference. According to him, this year checks have also
been conducted at the poultry factories with the aim of checking the
production’s compliance with the requirements of normative documents.

life and health have been revealed during the checks. The registered
violations were only related to the requirement of brand name envisaged

of poultry factories responsible for these violations were fined.
