A mini textile enterprise, to be created in Azerbaijan’s Fizuli District with the joint participation of Azerbaijani and Turkish businesswomen, is expected to start operating this autumn, Sakina Babayeva, head of the Association of Women Entrepreneurs of Azerbaijan, told Trend.
She said the mini enterprise will produce socks.
