The State Tax Service awarded OBA for its contribution to employment

The Ministry of Economy organized a forum on the topic of “Looking into the future in the tax system: a new management model and data-based decisions”. The event was attended by the leadership of the Ministry of Economy and the State Tax Service, representatives of state institutions, parliamentarians, representatives of public associations of entrepreneurs, experts and businessmen. At the forum, “OBA Market” LLC was awarded in the nomination “Contributing to the development of employment in the trade sector”. The award was presented to Natavan Ibrahimova, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the “OBA” market chain, by Deputy Prime Minister Samir Sharifov and Minister of Economy Mikayil Jabbarov. Natavan Ibrahimova, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the “OBA” market chain, said that such awards serve to further stimulate the steps taken to support employment, and such a high assessment of the contribution made to this area creates a sense of pride. Supporting employment, developing personnel, and ensuring progress in this area, especially in the regions, are considered priority areas for the “OBA” market chain. In 2025, OBA employed more than two thousand people in various positions and supported their career development. This is a clear example of the company's contribution to increasing employment and developing human capital. OBA does not stop at creating new jobs, but also forms training programs, internal career opportunities and a motivating work environment that support the sustainable development of employees. Thanks to this approach, one of the main priorities remains to reveal the potential of employees, create conditions for their long-term career and contribute to the development of employment in the country in general. The OBA supermarket chain, with its extensive store infrastructure across the country, continuously contributes to creating employment opportunities for thousands of people and increasing jobs in the regions. Since the company began its activities, it has prioritized supporting local employment, involving young people in business life and operating in accordance with the principles of social responsibility. This award is considered a high assessment of the contribution of the OBA supermarket chain to the country's economy and the work it has done to increase employment. It should be noted that the "OBA" supermarket chain was awarded the same award last year for its contribution to employment development.
