Fabiani & Co. is working to bolster the investment profile of Tajikistan, the landlocked central Asian state that borders Afghanistan.
Tajikistan, this month, was admitted to the World Trade Organization after 11 years of negotiations.
The former Soviet republic is a vital logistical hub for NATO forces. That importance will rise as Tajikistan, which is a Muslim state, is slated to become a transit point for U.S. forces exiting Afghanistan in 2014.
F&C’s $1.2M one-year contract began Oct. 1. The pact via Talco Management, an aluminum trading company, calls for promoting Talco’s business interests, while improving Tajikistan’s overall political, social, cultural and commercial relations with the U.S.
F&C is headed by Jim Fabiani, who was CEO of Cassidy & Assocs. |
