The 1st Armenian Apricot Scientific Forum marks its official opening on July 6th at the Armenia Marriott Hotel in Yerevan. The purpose of this forum is to inform the public about the historic importance of the Armenian apricot fruit known as Prunus Armeniacus in Latin.
Honorary guests during the event will include the Prime Minister of Armenia Serge Sargsyan, the Minister of Agriculture of Armenia David Lokyan, Consuelo Vidal, the UN Permanent Representative and UNDP Coordinator, and Hans Boon, Trust Manager of HayPost Trust Management.
To commemorate this important event, the national postal operator of the Republic of Armenia, HayPost CJSC, has officially issued a postal stamp entitled Armenian Apricot. This distinctive stamp has been designed exclusively for the opening of the ceremony and can be used for general postal circulation as well as a philatelic collector's item.
"The meaning of this stamp is to help inform the world the story behind this Armenian fruit "the apricot" and we are proud that HayPost CJSC is taking part of this important event," states Hans Boon, the Trust Manager of HayPost. -ArmRadio.Am
