(MENAFN- Trend News Agency)
BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 6. It is planned to
build a logistics center in Russian Perm Krai for the storage of
agricultural products from Azerbaijan, Trend reports with reference to the Russian
media
This center will allow supplying agricultural products not only
to residents of the Prikamye region (part of Perm Krai), but also
to neighboring regions.
“Now deliveries of fruit and vegetable products to Perm Krai are
in transit through other regions, which leads to its cost. Direct
transportation will help to save on transport costs and,
accordingly, to reduce prices for the end consumers,” Governor of
Perm Dmitry Mahonin said during a meeting with Azerbaijani Deputy
Minister of Agriculture Elchin Zeynalov.
According to Mahonin, it is planned to increase the volume of
deliveries of livestock products to Azerbaijan, such as milk,
products of its processing and meat of cattle, also confectionery
goods.
Azerbaijani deputy minister emphasized that it is important to
consider all conditions for farmers supplying products for export,
in particular, it is necessary to determine the supply routes,
their distance, cost of transportation and storage of products,
because vegetables, fruits, milk, meat are perishable products and
businessmen should not suffer losses.
According to the sides, one of the options for the organization
of trade turnover is containerized transport, including within the
framework of Agroexpress logistics project, which will allow not
only to establish mutual deliveries on simplified customs and
phytosanitary procedures but also to organize the transit of goods
through both countries.
In addition, the participants noted that it is necessary to
provide entrepreneurs with tools for organizing foreign
deliveries.
It was proposed to organize a working group on export and import
issues, as a result of the meeting, which should work out the terms
of reciprocal deliveries, customs payments, taxes, transport costs
and other areas of cooperation.
