The turnover of the company Abavas dārzi, known on the market by the brand Abavas vīna darītava, reached 1.1 million euros in 2020, which is 7% more than in 2019.

This was stated in an interview with DB by Mārtiņš Barkāns, co-owner of SIA Abavas dārzi, adding that the company is currently also implementing a 1.5 million euro investment programme to ensure the company's further growth.

M. Barkāns admits that the last two years have been quite difficult, as the impact of the pandemic meant that about half of Abavas vīna darītava's sales channels were periodically closed, including restaurants, cafes, airports, and various tourist gathering spots. However, the company was able to successfully reorient itself by launching online sales, organising remote tastings, and carrying out other measures, M. Barkāns acknowledges.
