The inspection team of the “Apimondia” International Beekeeping Congress examined the infrastructure facilities and hotel complexes of Ufa, which are planned to be used during the 47th Congress.

The inspectors include representatives of the Italian company AIM Group International, which was determined by the World Federation of Beekeeping Associations as an operator of the Apimondia International Beekeeping Congress in the capital of Bashkiria in 2021.

“The Apimondia Inspection Group marked the high level of Ufa’s congress facilities, the newness and convenient location of the hotels”, Amir Ishemgulov, Beekeeping and Apitherapy Center CEO, told the Bashinform News Agency. “We have discussed organizational arrangements and a short-term plan for preparing for the Congress”.

Representatives of AIM Group International also visited the House of Bashkir Honey.

“We told our Italian guests the history of the beekeeping development in the republic, presented the scientific developments of the Beekeeping and Apitherapy Center”, Amir Ishemgulov added. “Tasting of different types of Bashkortostan honey, bee royal jelly, various products of our center made a good impression on the guests. Organic cosmetics based on plant juices, Bashkir honey, and mare's milk aroused great interest. The cost of more than 10 types of cosmetic products is below one dollar. The guests were very surprised by this fact”.

As reported by the Bashinform News Agency, in 2021 Bashkiria will host the 47th International Beekeeping Congress "Apimondia". It is expected that about 10 thousand participants from 80 countries will come to the republic.

Before this, the International Beekeeping Congress was hosted by Russia only once - the forum was held in Moscow in 1971.
