Aram Chopuryan, Executive Director of Ras Computer Technologies, PC major supplier in Armenia, said the sales decreased by 50% against last year’s index. “The population is out of cash, and loan applications are rejected by banks,” he said.
According to a survey conducted by a PanARMENIAN.Net correspondent, the similar situation is with other PC major suppliers like Bi Line that lost 30% turn over. Turnover of Dolphin and Lans shops decreased by 60% and 80% respectively.
Zaruhi Mkrtchyan, Commercial Director of Unicomp CJSC, official partner of Intel and Cisco Systems in Armenia, said IT hardware producers prefer to cut the production volume but not the prices.
