Azerbaijan ambassador calls for expansion of trade with Pakistan

Azerbaijan ambassador calls for expansion of trade with Pakistan
30.11.2015 10:00
The Azerbaijani ambassador to Pakistan, Dashgin Shikarov, said on Saturday that Azerbaijan is keen to strengthen trade and economic ties with Pakistan. 

He was addressing Lahore Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI). 

The Ambassador invited the Pakistani businessmen to participate in the exhibition and forum being planned for April 2016 in Azerbaijan and Pakistan. 

The proposed exhibition and forum would provide Pakistani entrepreneurs an opportunity to establish close contacts with their counterparts in Azerbaijan, he observed. 

He said that in 2013, the value of total exports of Pakistan to Azerbaijan was $49.7 million which shrank to $27.7 million in 2014. 

"It is unfortunate that Pakistan does not figure prominently among the trading partners of Azerbaijan and main reason of such a low level of trade is lack of proper information about each other’s markets,” he said.
