BALKHOORMA LLC has been founded in January 2016. Our plant is located in the heart of the mountains, in Balakan, a beautiful northern region of Azerbaijan and has a staff of about 150 kind and experienced employees. The plant is equipped with all the necessary automated equipments and is fully adapted to modern standards; it consists of a range of service sections including washing, peeling, cooling and packaging. We strive to sustainably support local farmers by purchasing fresh persimmons, our main raw material, from their orchards in Katekh and other surrounding villages, and by this way we are able to deliver the most delicious and 100% organic products to our customers too. As part of our social responsibility, we always aim to support other fruit producers by launching new product ideas so that we can provide our buyers with a variety of organic tastes, to name a few- persimmon molasses, dried tomato, fig, melon, date and so on. As Azerbaijan is in the top five in the world in terms of persimmon production, either fresh persimmon or final dehydrazied persimmon varieties are sufficient for both domestic sales and exports. Untill now, BALKHOORMA has reached to the markets of Germany, Netherlands, Lithuania, Belarus, Russia, Ukraine, Malaysia and presented this exotic taste of Azerbaijan to foreign buyers. Our goal is to deliver organic and useful products to every customer with a wide range of products in more countries!
