During the trip, the delegation met with the management of one of Malaysia’s largest retail chains, KK Super Mart.
As a result of the discussions, a preliminary agreement was reached on the phased introduction of products from Ferghana Region producers into the chain’s stores.
The delegation also held negotiations with companies specializing in the import of fruit and vegetable products, including Hoi Yong Fruits and Al Hijrah Global Sdn Bhd. Malaysian business representatives expressed strong interest in Uzbek products, particularly pomegranates and dried fruits.
