“ABAD” (Facilitated Support to Family Business) public legal entity run by the State Agency for Public Service and Social Innovations under the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan was established following the Presidential Decree dated 23 September 2016.

Our objectives

The main purpose of establishing the organization is to carry out socially-oriented projects aimed at ensuring the active participation of the citizens in the socio-economic life of the Republic of Azerbaijan, developing micro, small and medium entrepreneurship, raising the employment rate of the population and supporting the formation of competitive family businesses in the country.

Our directions

Functioning with the concept of self-financing, "ABAD" centres implement assistance projects for family businesses engaged in decorative-applied folk crafts and artisanal food production.

Our services

 “ABAD” centres provide business planning, equipment, marketing, training courses, branding and design, financial accounting and legal assistance services to family households. 

"ABAD" manages certification of products based on the “single window” (one-stop-shop) principle, as well as arranges sales and logistics of products.

Along with a producer family’s brand name, a special label is also placed on every product that attests to its production under the control of ABAD.

In-store stalls have been established in the “Bravo” Hypermarkets’ chain where “ABAD” food products are offered for sale.

Within the framework of the support program, people engaged in decorative-applied folk arts, "ABAD" Ethno-boutiques operate in different corners of the country. It should be emphasized that the vast majority of the souvenirs presented here are intrinsic to the Azerbaijani culture.
