Export destinations

Azerbaijani cotton is competitive in the global market due to its high quality and long fiber characteristics. In recent years, cotton exports have held a strategic position in the country’s agricultural exports.

Main export markets

Currently, a large portion of cotton exports is directed to Turkey, Russia, China, and European countries. Turkey is a key partner for Azerbaijani cotton in both the yarn and textile industries.

In recent years, the annual volume of cotton exports has ranged between 100,000 and 120,000 tons. The largest increase was recorded between 2016 and 2020.

  • Azerbaijan is also expanding its export potential to South Asia and the Middle East. Countries such as India, Bangladesh, and Egypt are important markets among cotton importers.

Cotton grown in Azerbaijan is distinguished by its long fibers, cleanliness, and high quality. This strengthens the brand’s position in the international market.

The Azerbaijani government and ACPA aim to increase sustainable cotton exports by establishing cooperation with international textile companies.
