MAIN PRIORITIES OF DEVELOPMENT
OF CANNING INDUSTRY IN AZERBAIJAN
Introduction
The development of Azerbaijan's export potential,
the creation of favourable conditions for the export of
domestic goods and services to foreign markets, the
implementation of targeted measures, and the
implementation of numerous measures to ensure the
integration of the country's economy into the world
economy are among the priorities. Appropriate
measures are being taken to effectively realise the
country's export potential, create a healthy competitive
environment in the domestic market, create favourable
conditions for entrepreneurship, ensure consumer
protection, increase the range of export products in the
private sector to bring standardisation in line with
international requirements, stimulate export, strengthen
the position of national producers in external markets
and strengthen the protection of their interests [8].
The growth of Azerbaijan's economic potential, the
activities of canning factories that comply with modern
technologies and produce competitive products have
stimulated positive trends in the country's foreign trade
and caused great interest in the world market for canned
fruits and vegetables, fruit and vegetable juices under
the brand "Made in Azerbaijan" [9].
1. Role and significance of foreign trade
relations in the development of the canning industry
In a market economy, foreign trade relations are of
particular importance in the modernization, develop-
ment and management of the canning industry, which
can be considered as one of the priority areas for
effective use of the import-export potential. The role and
special importance of foreign trade relations can also be
considered as an important tool for the use of significant
economic mechanisms in solving the problems affecting
the system of economic relations of agriculture, such as
production, distribution, exchange and consumption,
which constitute the raw material base of the canning
industry. The experience of developed countries shows
that the achievement of effective results in the systems
of food complex depends on the issues related to the
optimal structure of domestic resources, import-export
and production [2]. Based on this idea, we can agree that
along with the concepts of sustainable development of
the agrarian economy within the framework of food
complex modernization, it is possible to actively
regulate the conditions related to the formation and
forecasting of the economic environment. The solution
of existing problems related to foreign trade can be
considered as one of the strategic directions of
development of the national economy, depending on the
effective organization and management of import-
export operations, which also ensures the long-term
development of the canning industry. Hence the
regulatory functions of the state in the implementation
of the market economy model based on socially oriented
and liberal values of the country. According to a number
of proponents of economic thought, the regulatory
function of the state is to protect the domestic market
and the formation of market structures that promote
adequate and stable use of food by the population,
creating opportunities for the effective use of export-
import potential mechanisms [5]. It can be concluded
from the conducted research that the creation of export
potential of canned products is, firstly, the functioning
of a more efficient agricultural market of the country,
and secondly, the creation of production areas of canned
products, which are considered to be more efficient for
imports and exports.
The geopolitical position of the Republic of
Azerbaijan, its transit-geographical position between
Europe and Asia has a positive impact on import-export
operations in the country. As a result, the scale and
nature of territorial integration and production-
economic relations between the countries are changing,
balancing ever-increasing import-export operations, and
new economic, administrative mechanisms and
management parameters are emerging. In accordance
with the important requirements of the world market, the
increase of export requires the adaptation of quality and
certification of products produced by canneries [3].
Efficiency of use of import-export potential of
canning industry products is also determined by the
balance in studying the level of their compliance with
consumer demands of the population and changes in
quality in the structure of canning industry products.
Analysis and forecasting of the problem has new
methodological aspects, following which it is necessary
to balance production and consumption volumes for
V. Abbasov, E. Shukurova

each canned product, as well as to balance the import
and export potential of this product. When the cost of
production of a given product in the country is higher
than the cost of its import from abroad, it becomes
necessary to take regulatory measures to meet the
economic interests of local producers, which reduces the
importance of imports [7]. However, from a practical
point of view, measures taken in this direction can have
a positive effect on the efficiency of domestic
production in general and prevent monopolistic price
trends. If the necessary measures in these areas are
postponed, import-oriented production in the country
will weaken and, as a consequence, the level of
employment and profitability of the rural population
will decrease, which may lead to the transformation of
the country into an importer.
2. Comparative analysis of the import and
export potential of canned products
The analysis shows that the growth rates of import
and export operations of canned products in the country
are somewhat different [11]. In the graph below it can
be clearly seen that the dependence on imports is
decreasing from year to year. Thus, while in 2007 the
figure was 41.9 thousand tonnes, in 2010 the figure
decreased by 75.5% to 10.3 thousand tonnes, in 2015 -
decreased by 60% to 4.2 thousand tonnes, in 2016 -
decreased by 1.3% to 4.1 thousand tonnes. In 2017 -
decreased by 40.1% to 2.5 thousand tonnes, in 2018 -
increased by 27.9% to 3.1 thousand tonnes, in 2019 -
increased by 3.36% to 3.2 thousand tonnes, and in 2020
- decreased by 19.13% to 2.6 thousand tonnes (Fig. 1).

From 2007 to 2020 there were relatively different
changes in the dynamics of imports and exports of
canned fruit and vegetable in the country. If we pay
attention to the indicators of imports, we may notice that
compared to 2007, import of canned fruit and vegetable
products increased by 66.7% in 2010, but in some
periods there were both increases and decreases. In the
comparable period, the highest growth rate of canned
fruit and vegetable imports was recorded in 2011, which
is almost twice as much as in 2007. In the following
years, however, there have been steady increases to
6.61% in 2008, to 9.4 % in 2010 and to 30.3% in 2015
[10]. However, in 2016 the figure decreased by 25.1%
to 16.6 thousand tonnes, in 2017 it increased by 14.3%
to 19 thousand tonnes, in 2018 by 12% to 21.3 thousand
tonnes, and in 2019 by 2.3% to 24 thousand tonnes. In
2020, imports of canned fruit and vegetables fell by
1.44% to 23.6 thousand tonnes, which can be attributed
to the beginning of the pandemic (Fig. 2).
The table 1 below shows the consumption of fruit
and vegetable juices used as production and food
products from 2010-2020. If we look at the table 1, we
see that there has been a significant increase in
production from 2010 to 2020. While in 2010 the figure
was 29,500 tonnes, in 2020 the production increased by
33.9% to 39,500 tonnes. While the indicators of fruit and
vegetable juices consumed for food in 2010 were 23.4
thousand tonnes, in 2020 this figure increased by 13.7%
to 26.6 thousand tonnes.
Significant positive changes were also observed in
the consumption of canned fruit and vegetable as a
production and food product in 2010-2020. According
to the statistics presented in the table 1, the production
volume increased from 107.6 thousand tonnes in 2010
by 49.6% and reached 161 thousand tonnes in 2020. The
indicators of canned fruits and vegetables consumed as
food also increased from 120.5 thousand tonnes in 2010
by 41, 5% to 170.5 thousand tonnes in 2020.
The canning industry plays an important role in
maximising the food needs of the population. According
to 2020 statistics, an average of 17.1 kg of canned fruit
and vegetable per capita and up to 2.7 kg of fruit and

vegetable juices were consumed during the year.
Comparing with the 2015 figures, there is an increase of
8% with 15.8 kg for canned fruit and vegetable and 23%
with 2.2 kg for fruit and vegetable juices [1].
The table 2 below shows the annual quantity and
value of canned fruits and vegetables and juices
exported by Azerbaijan in 2010-2020 [4].
Results and discussions
Currently, there are potential opportunities to
increase exports of canned fruit and juice, which
requires the creation of competitive canning facilities in
the country on the basis of innovative development. For
this purpose, it is necessary to implement measures, the
result of which will be the achievement of the following
objectives through the mobilization of labor, financial,
land and other material resources for agricultural
production:
– improvement of the production structure and
technological base of the canning industry;
– development of the production activities of the
canning industry, aimed at using the latest technologies
and equipment of the new generation;
– creation of an improved production and service
infrastructure for the canning industry infrastructure for
the canned food industry;
– achievement of production of competitive
products through encouragement of investment in the
canning industry, efficient use of local raw materials and
resources;
– improvement of sectoral structure and production
efficiency based on increased productivity and
competitiveness;
– improvement of economic relations of the
canning industry with agriculture, procurement,
transport, warehousing, trade, etc.;
– Achievement of export-oriented and competitive
production in the canning industry;
– application of international standards in the
production of canned products;
– expanding the technological base and efficient
use of secondary raw materials on the basis of
international experience in industrial processing.
Conclusions
In conclusion it may be noted that positive
development trends of non-oil industry of the Republic
of Azerbaijan stipulate the necessity to specify
prospective scenarios of canned food industry
development. Ensuring sustainable and high growth
rates of industrial production, improvement of its
structure and increase of efficiency are the basis for
defining the ways for development of canned food
industry in the future.

Table 2
Export of canned fruits and vegetables and juices in Azerbaijan
One of the conditions for effective organization of
export in the country's economy is to determine the
optimal level of exports and imports, improve their
quality and create conditions for implementation in
accordance with world market standards and prices.
From the above it can be concluded that the creation
of export potential of the canning industry products
is, firstly, the functioning of a more efficient agricultural
market of the country, and secondly, the creation of
production areas of canned products, which are
considered to be more efficient for imports and exports.
