Ara Grigoryan: Perno Ricard won't purchase grapes and spirit abroad
Yerevan Brandy Company (YBC) intends to purchase 32000 tons of grapes this year, YBC executive director Ara Grigoryan said.

"We will buy 1 kg of grapes for AMD 130. In Aygevan and Tavush regions, the price was set as AMD 120. As to complaints that the price too low, I must say that it's dictated by the market," he said, adding that Perno Ricard won't purchase grapes and spirit abroad.

"Our output has reduced by 35% this year but we intend to buy1750 kg more than in 2008," YBF executive director said.
