Belarus is interested in opening a trading house in Azerbaijan, General Director of the Grodno Branch of the Belarus Chamber of Commerce and Industry Mechislav Kostyuk told Trend.

"If the authorities support this intention, Belarus is ready to open a trading house in Baku or in any other district of Azerbaijan," Kostyuk said. "This step will be useful for both countries."

He added that the opening of Azerbaijan’s trading house in Belarus significantly increased interest in Azerbaijani products in the country.

Touching upon the development of trade relations between the two countries, Kostyuk noted that Belarus is interested in the supply of Azerbaijani products.

"We want to supply citrus and dried fruits from Azerbaijan to Belarus," he added. "Grodno Tobacco Factory Neman OJSC, one of our biggest tobacco factories, is also interested in buying raw material from Azerbaijan. In turn, we are ready to offer Azerbaijan a wide range of quality meat and dairy products, in particular, dried baby food."

Azerbaijan’s trade turnover with Belarus in January-October 2017 amounted to $113.15 million, according to the State Customs Committee of Azerbaijan.
