Tinatin Kurasbediani lives in the village of Sviri, Akhaltsikhe Municipality. She always wanted to have her own income and be an independent woman. So, Tinatin participated in the new initiative of UN Women and Taso Foundation. With its help, she purchased the relevant inventory and started the production and sale of Svanetian Salt.
Her salt has a special taste and aroma. In addition, she always tries to offer her customers a new and natural product. Currently, Tinatin sells her Svanetian Salt online and offers a delivery service to the customers.
In the future, Tinatin wants to expand her production and plans to sell products in different municipalities as well.
