YEREVAN, MARCH 26, ARMENPRESS. Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has attended the inauguration of a new cheese factory in Armenia. 

Development Director Karen Baghdasaryan from Spayka, the Armenian company that will run the factory, said they will produce soft-ripened cheese and blue cheese in the factory.

“More than 15 million dollars was invested to implement the project,” he said.
