Although considered a small market compared to Russia, the businesses of
this country have showed interest for extending their assets in
Albania.

“Shqip” newspaper says that the meetings held several days ago in Moscow, between the delegations of both Chambers of Commerce, confirmed the interest of the Russian investors for Albania.

This forum was symbolically called “The day of the Albanian business in Moscow”, and it had the participation of Chamber of Commerce directors and other officials.

The Russian counterpart valued this forum that aims to incite a fruitful cooperation for both parties’ interest. She specified as priority the fields of Energy, the fuel, tourism etc.

“For the Russian investors, Albania might seem a small market at first glance, but we must not forget that it is in the heart of the world’s biggest market and has all legal agreements for exporting in Europe and elsewhere”, declared the Chairman of the Albanian Chamber of Commerce, Nikolin Jaka. Referring to official statistics, Albania imports from Russia mainly crops.

INSTAT says that until August, the imports from Russia reached 6.2 billion ALL, 2 billion ALL less than one year ago. While the exports reached 13 million ALL. This shows that the trade level between both countries is still very modest.
