Georgia and Kazakhstan to offer joint logistics projects to international companies

Georgia and Kazakhstan will offer joint logistics projects to international companies, announces Georgian Prime Minister Mamuka Bakhtadze while summarising yesterday’s meetings under his official visit to Kazakhstan.

Bakhtadze said that Kazakhstan is an important partner and friend of Georgia.

Kazakhstan is one of the largest investors in our economy. Last year, our trade grew 35%. Similarly, our exports to Kazakhstan are growing in leaps and bounds. Today a very important agreement was signed – a roadmap seeking to double trade between the two countries over the next couple of years”, Bakhtadze said.

He also noted that Kazakhstan is interested in exporting more wheat to Georgia.

In addition, using Georgia's ports will enable Kazakhstan to increase export to the Mediterranean. It is a complex project that requires careful development, but I am convinced that, together, we will make it work. At the same time, we can offer absolutely new products to the international market, such as the chemical industry, for example”, Bakhtadze said.

Today Bakhtadze will take part in the Astana Economic Forum to discuss Georgia's investment potential.
