The 12th Rural Life and Traditions Festival recently concluded, hosting over 200 farmers and entrepreneurs from across Armenia and the international community. Organized by "Green Lane" NGO with the support of ACBA Federation, the festival serves a dual purpose: showcasing innovative agricultural products and making the sector more attractive to the next generation of entrepreneurs.
"Modernizing Armenia’s agricultural landscape is a top priority," stated Harutyun Poghosyan, General Director of ACBA Federation. "This year alone, we organized 21 specialized seminars for over 350 farm businesses to fill critical knowledge gaps in the sector."
Nune Sarukhanyan, President of "Green Lane" NGO, emphasized the impact of this support: "The entrepreneurs backed by ACBA Federation truly stand out. Their products are professionally branded and competitive, with many now ready to enter international export markets." The ACBA Federation is the major shareholder of ACBA Bank, holding over 75% of its shares. Through this strategic position, the Federation actively contributes to the development of agriculture, the growth of small and medium-sized enterprises in rural areas, the development of communities, the revitalization of local economies, and the improvement of livelihoods for individuals engaged in entrepreneurial activities across Armenia’s rural communities.
