In order, to promote local production, the issue of entry of Georgian products into supermarket chains should be regulated, - Soso Manjavidze, the managing partner of company "Georgian Agro Products", told BMGTV.
"We have negotiations with various supermarket chains and we hope that "Poporeli" will be represented in many stores from the next year. Almost all trade chains have their sauces. Perhaps our advantage is that we have different flavors - blackberry sauce, two types of pepper and etc. We add cranberry, peach and other kinds of sauces, which I think will help. They say that they will not accept our products because they have their own," said Manjavidze.
When asked what he believes to be the way out of the situation, Manjavidze answers: "I think there should be some kind of regulations. Almost all countries promote local production and it would be good if it were the same for us. I think some regulations are still acceptable."
He does not talk about a specific model, although he says that it is possible to consider European examples.
