Mazar-e-Sharif, Afghanistan – July 2026

TAK Dry Fruit Company was honored to welcome Alexander De Croo, Administrator of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), and Barham Salih, United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), to our production facility in Mazar-e-Sharif, Afghanistan.

The visit highlighted the important role that Afghanistan's private sector plays in creating sustainable employment opportunities, supporting economic recovery, and helping returning refugees rebuild their lives. During the visit, the delegation toured our production lines, met with our management team and employees, and learned how international partnerships are strengthening Afghanistan's agricultural value chains.

Creating Opportunities Through Employment

Today, approximately half of TAK's workforce consists of Afghan returnees who have come back to Afghanistan seeking new opportunities. Through stable employment, professional training, and long-term career development, these employees are rebuilding their futures while supporting their families and contributing to their communities.

We believe that meaningful employment is one of the most effective ways to promote dignity, stability, and economic resilience.

Every Purchase Creates Impact

When customers choose TAK products, they are doing more than purchasing premium Afghan dried fruits.

They are supporting:

• Sustainable employment for Afghan returnees.

• Local farmers and agricultural communities.

• Economic recovery through private sector development.

• Responsible and ethical sourcing from Afghanistan.

Every shipment exported by TAK contributes to creating livelihoods and strengthening communities across the country.

A Partnership for Sustainable Development

We are grateful for the continued support and collaboration of UNDP and UNHCR in promoting inclusive economic growth and helping Afghan businesses expand their capacity.

The visit reaffirmed the importance of partnerships between international organizations and the private sector in creating lasting opportunities for Afghan families while demonstrating the global potential of Afghanistan's agricultural products.
