Georgian companies are working to establish olive oil production in Kazakhstan, with over 10 thousand trees already planted and plans for another 50 thousand to be added soon. Experts believe that the climate of southern Kazakhstan is ideal for growing olives, with the potential to harvest up to 50 kg of olives per year from one tree. Georgiy Svanidze, President of the International Olive Council, is confident that Kazakh olive oil will be one of the best in the world, and investors from Georgia plan to develop the industry in Kazakhstan and increase capacity for exporting products to neighboring countries.
