The Kazakhstan Diplomatic Club "Astana" arranged a trip for the Ýigit to meet with the executives of Magnum Cash&Carry, a top retail store chain in Kazakhstan. The discussions were successful. People from the Magnum chain of stores said they want to work together with Ýigit. They think Ýigit's fruit and vegetable products are very good. A modern greenhouse farm that grows vegetables all year round has been praised as a new and groundbreaking achievement in the greenhouse industry of the CIS region.

Yigit is the first in Turkmenistan to get the Global G.A.P certification, which recognizes good agricultural practices. This is a certificate that shows that the company's products are of the best quality, safe to use, and good for the environment.

The goal of the Astana Diplomatic Club is to encourage Kazakhstani and foreign entrepreneurs to communicate and collaborate effectively. Turkmen farmers can now visit Kazakhstan because of agreements made between the Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs of Turkmenistan and the Astana Diplomatic Club. These agreements were made during negotiations in Ashgabat in early October, with help from the Turkmenistan Embassy in Kazakhstan.
