Tourism, agriculture and manufacturing are promising areas that will aid the development of Mtskheta-Mtianeti’s economic potential, believes Georgia’s Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili.
Today, Garibashvili mobilised central and regional Government representatives, businessmen and potential investors in Gudauri and introduced them to the various opportunities available in the region and promised "full Governmental support” if they put extra effort into doing business there.
"Agriculture can be developed in this region in the following directions: cattle breeding, sheep breeding, producing milk, meat, fruit and vegetables, beekeeping, market gardening, fruit growing and greenhouse development,” Garibashvili said.
"Mtskheta city has potential in fruit processing, producing natural juices and having a confectionery factory. In the region people can produce textiles,” he added.
"In Kazbegi it is possible to create a logistic centre and produce wool products as well as traditional souvenirs. In Tianeti one can produce ecologically clean products,” Garibashvili noted.
