German companies in the Azerbaijani market are presented as suppliers of goods with the best quality, namely: cars and auto parts, machinery and equipment, chemicals and pharmaceuticals," she noted. "Over the past two years The COVID-19 pandemic negatively affected the trade and investment plans of German companies in Azerbaijan, however, Germany remains the fifth largest trading partner.
