YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 6, ARMENPRESS: Armenian Development Agency (ADA)
plans to hold a large light industry exhibition from May 27 to
May 29, 2005 to time with independence festivities in the capital.
Mushegh Sarkisian, ADA deputy director told Armenpress that several
foreign companies, which support the sector development, have expressed
readiness to assist in organizing the event.

According to M. Sarkisian, ADA will announce competition for the
best logo of the exhibition, will create an internet page and invite
international companies through its on-line registration system. “Not
all Armenian companies have chances to participate in international
exhibitions. Let foreign companies come and learn about the products
of Armenian light industry here,” the deputy director said, adding
that contact names of the companies dealing with wholesale trade and
registered in World Trade Organization and European Union countries
will be used for that purpose.

It is also planed to exhibit Armenian culture and samples from food
industry (juice, candy) together with exhibits of light industry.
