In 2025, the two companies established cooperation in the production of gold and silver coins, as well as gold bars, offered for retail sale by AzerGold CJSC.

Chairman Zakir Ibrahimov briefed the delegation on the activities of AzerGold CJSC, which is specialized in the mining sector, with the aim of familiarizing them with the company’s operations, exploring opportunities for expanding cooperation, and identifying new areas of collaboration.

He also highlighted that the company continues to successfully operate in the retail sale of precious metals.

Since 2019, AzerGold CJSC has presented locally produced gold coin collections to the domestic retail market. These coins, distinguished by their unique designs, serve not only as reliable investment tools but also promote Azerbaijan’s history, art, cultural heritage, and national values.
