"Many meetings were held with the local population when we discussed how to develop this direction. The state company "Imereti Agrozone" was established, which develops greenhouses.

We will have primary production greenhouses, as well as a training center, we will be able to provide all services, which will serve not only the 200 ha allocated in Partskhanakanebi, but also for the farmers of Tskaltubo municipality as a whole.
Refrigeration, storage, and processing farms will be built here so that each kilogram of produce produced becomes more valuable and passes to the traditional markets and the markets of Europe and the Middle East that we have explored. The project has been developed by a Georgian-Dutch group, a detailed study has been completed, an expression of interest has been announced, and today we are starting agreements with investors on specific terms, ” the minister said.
