Sari Gat Economic Development Project
Description
“Sari Gat” Dairy & Cheese Company plays an important role in the border town of Berd and the surrounding villages of Armenia’s Tavush Region. As a thriving small business, “Sari Gat” produces a variety of high-quality cheeses and dairy products, distributing them throughout the region. More than just a business, “Sari Gat” is a force for good—purchasing milk from local farmers at fair or above-market prices, generating employment, and stimulating economic growth in the community.
Now, “Sari Gat” is preparing to take an exciting step forward. To meet increasing demand and support even more local farmers, the company plans to expand its production capacity by constructing a large refrigerated storage room, 650 square feet in size. This essential addition will enable “Sari Gat” to process and store more dairy products, directly benefiting dozens of farming families and creating new job opportunities in the region.
We invite you to join us in supporting this meaningful project. Your contribution will help build the new refrigeration facility, empowering “Sari Gat” to continue uplifting Berd’s economy and strengthening the livelihoods of families across the Tavush Region. Together, we can make a lasting impact—one that nourishes both people and community.

The Need
“Sari Gat” Dairy & Cheese Company needs a new refrigerated storage room to expand its production capacity. This project will enable the company to purchase more milk, support additional farming families, and create new jobs in the community.
Short Term Impact
As funding becomes available, a new refrigerator room will be build as an add-on to the current building “Sari Gat” currently runs its production out of. A local construction crew will be employed to complete the build.
Long Term Impact
In the long term, this upgrade will directly benefit local farmers and boost economic opportunities in Berd and the surrounding villages. Local farmers will have additional places to sell their milk to.
Sponsors Benefits
All sponsors of this important project will be listed on The Paros Foundation’s website and in all press related to this project. A visit to the “Sari Gat” factory and Berd and its surrounding communities can be arranged for sponsors visiting Armenia.
