As part of the visit, on May 17, a meeting was held with representatives of the SAHARKHIZ SAFFRON agricultural and industrial group, which specializes in large-scale saffron cultivation and scientific research in Mashhad.
The company was founded in 1932 and produces more than 30 tons of saffron per year, which is exported to the world market.
In addition, the company has modern-equipped laboratories, packaging and processing workshops.
Following the talks, the parties agreed to organize a working visit to Uzbekistan in the near future in order to improve the quality and volume of saffron products grown and exchange mutual experience.
