The Armenian government has again granted an import tax waiver to ABC Textile, a company owned by Astghik Aleksanyan, daughter of Armenian businessman and member of parliament Samvel Aleksanyan, and the sons of former Lebanese Minister of Energy and Water Reserves Arthur Nazaryan.

The government had granted the company a similar waiver on April 18 of this year.

ABC Textile has promised to import AMD 7 billion in raw materials and equipment to Armenia, and to create 175 jobs.

The company is registered at an address in the Ararat Province town of Artashat where the Artashat Tricotage Factory owned by former Armenian Prime Minister Hovik Abrahamyan was located.

A few months back, Abrahamyan sold the factory to Alex Textile,  a company owned by Astghik Aleksanyan.
