response of importers to the call of the government. This is very
important. First we decrease the volume of import of vodka and are
having own production: 80 working places have been created and the
factory will expand making the number of employees reach 200.
Secondly, the competitiveness in the market will bring to the increase
of the quality of vodka in Armenia and it is important as we deal
with the health of our citizens. And the third the company is going
to export its product to neighboring countries, as well as to Russia,
Ukraine which means that the quality of vodka must be high to be able
to compete with well known Russian and Ukrainian brands."

calls. New strategy is being developed which on one hand must activate
the work of the commission, on the other new initiatives must be
forwarded according to which an opportunity will be given to the
commission in case of such abuses not only apply punitive measures
but also implement preventive measures so that people do not think
to cheat the customers selling low quality products under well-known
brands. This is inadmissible, dangerous phenomena. We are planning to
strengthen both the production oversight and events against economic
abuses," the prime minister said.
