Georgian producers look to increase commercial nut production
Georgia boasts an ideal climate and ample water resources for growing almonds, walnuts, pistachios, and hazelnuts. Although hazelnut production is well-established in Georgia – it is one of the top global exporters of hazelnuts – the country remains a net importer of walnuts, pistachios, and almonds. Georgia needs to build the capacity of its producers to become more competitive in domestic and export markets.
Around 150 producers and industry experts will gather in Tbilisi today for a one-day conference entitled “Nuts of Georgia: Efficiency of production and marketing” organized by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and FAO, with support from the European Union (EU) through its EU4Business initiative.
