BAKU, Azerbaijan, May 8. Azerbaijan and Belarus
are implementing a project for the joint production of mixed
fertilizers, said Tural Hajili, Deputy Executive Director of the
Export and Investment Promotion Agency of Azerbaijan (AZPROMO), at
a seminar organized by the Commodity Exchange, which is taking
place in Baku, Trend
reports.


"AZPROMO interacts with the Belarusian Universal Commodity
Exchange within the framework of a signed memorandum providing for
cooperation to increase trade turnover, expand business ties, and
strengthen interaction between the business communities of our
countries.


It is gratifying that the mechanism of the intergovernmental
commission effectively functions between Belarus and Azerbaijan,
making a significant contribution to the development of bilateral
cooperation. Even though such platforms are often primarily
political and protocol in nature, the intergovernmental commission
between Azerbaijan and Belarus annually forms concrete plans in the
fields of business, cooperation, and joint projects," he said.


According to Hajili, in the first quarter of 2026, mutual trade
turnover between the two countries increased by 11%.


"This growth is undoubtedly driven by our joint initiatives and
platforms, as well as the activities of the trade house in Belarus,
which actively promotes Azerbaijani food products.







Furthermore, active work is underway on joint projects.
Currently, a project for the joint production of mixed fertilizers
is being implemented, which will be realized in the near future.
These projects will have a significant impact on the growth of
mutual trade turnover, including an orientation toward exports to
third countries.


We also know that MTZ tractors have been produced at the Ganja
Auto Plant since 2007, and the assembly of trucks, buses, trailers,
and other equipment is also carried out. Work in this direction
continues.


In parallel, projects for the assembly of elevators and
household appliances are being implemented. We have a very broad
joint agenda, and together with companies, the private sector, and
government structures, we are working on the implementation of
these initiatives," he added.
