The US Embassy Tbilisi issued a statement this week on social media saying that the American leadership was happy that the exports of blueberries from Georgia are steadily increasing. Last year, the profit was over 14 million dollars.
“Blueberry exports are steadily increasing from Georgia, and profits last year exceeded $14 million. The US government is pleased with this, as we have been providing blueberry growers in the US with modern technology and skills since 2018. We get more jobs in the region and higher incomes for people.”
“During her visit in Guria, US ambassador Degnan visited a blueberry producer and toured a cold storage facility supported by the US government. Blueberry Farm Ltd will buy crops from nearby producers through this cold storage.
The United States has provided support for 30% of the cold storage facilities created in Georgia.
