    ArmInfo. Today, Prime Minister of Armenia Tigran Sarkisyan visited
    the Original Distillery Company, a vodka distillery, opened 4 months
    ago by Sovrano Company, one of the biggest food and alcohol importers
    in Armenia.

    The prime minister surveyed the distillery company, got acquainted
    with the production and talked to the company management. As Chairman
    of the Board of Sovrano Company Sos Sahakyan said, after he meeting of
    Armenia's PM with big importers in February, 2009, the Company decided
    to follow the government's call and open its own production. "We have
    selected a plant which did not work for one and half decades, and
    founded a modern production on its basis. We invited technologists from
    Russia and Ukraine, and we want to assure a proper product quality. The
    vodka is made of the Ukrainian spirits and Armenian water", S. Sahakyan
    said. He added that 80 jobs have already been opened in the Company.

    According to T. Sarkisyan, the meeting held with big importers in
    February, 2009, starts giving positive results. "You see that the new
    production, organized during the last 4 months, was the importers'
    response to the government's call to open own productions", the PM
    said. First, the import volumes reduce and the own production is
    created. 80 jobs have been opened, and this number will reach 200
    with the production extension. Second, the competition in the market
    will naturally lead to improvement of the vodka quality, that will
    positively affect our citizens' health. Third, the company is going to
    export the vodka, and not only to the neighbouring countries but also
    to Russia and Ukraine. To assure competitiveness in these markets,
    the quality requirement should be high, T. Sarkisyan said. According
    to him, there are many industries in Armenia, where one may refuse
    of the import and organize its own production which will not yield to
    the import in quality. However, it s necessary to keep the quality",
    T. Sarkisyan said.
