ArmInfo. Currently 6 private companies in Armenia are already supplying troops with food, and about 7,000 servicemen receive delicious and varied food. Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan stated this on October 4 during the discussion of issues related to the food supply of conscripted soldiers of the RA Armed Forces.
According to the Prime Minister, noticeable changes are already being noted in the system, which are finding a positive response, both among military personnel and the public. Ro recall, the Armenian government at a meeting on February 21 approved a pilot program providing for the introduction of a public-private partnership mechanism in the country's Armed Forces.
Earlier, the Armed Forces themselves were directly involved in issues related to the procurement, delivery and processing of food products for the army, which often led to problems and complaints. Now the private sector has been connected to the process. As of the end of September, the number of military units that switched to the new power supply system reached 18.
