In 2023, Kazakh companies QVM Technology, Ordabasy Group and Ervira entered a partnership with Georgian Olive Georgia to launch a significant olive cultivation project across Kazakhstan. The initiative, which aims to cultivate olive trees across 1,000 hectares in the Zhetysu, Turkestan, and Mangistau regions by 2025, saw the survival rate of 6,080 seedlings planted from Georgia reach 99.7%. To enhance the project's success, additional seedlings from Spain and Turkey were planted in spring 2024, and a comprehensive study of the project, focusing on soil, climate, and meteorological conditions, will be conducted under the guidance of Professor Pablo Morello from the University of Cordoba. QVM Technology's long-term goals include establishing an olive processing plant and launching olive oil production by 2030.
