President Shavkat Mirziyoyev visited the small industrial and business zone "Barkamol avlod" in Namangan.
Technoparks and small industrial zones are being created in our country in order to support entrepreneurship. In Namangan region, the number of such complexes has reached 73.
There are many entrepreneurs and artisans in the mahalla of Barkamol avlod. But they had to work at home, which limited the realization of their potential.
Therefore, an industrial complex with the necessary infrastructure was organized next to the mahalla on an area of 10 hectares. 46 projects are being implemented here. Work has been completed at 18 enterprises, they have already started their activities, more than 2 thousand jobs have been created.
The Head of State got acquainted with the technological process at the enterprises "Master Class Design", "Siphat egoch sanoat", "Balance Tex".
The first company produces 150 thousand units of leather shoes per year. "Sifat egoch sanoat" is able to produce 1.2 thousand sets of furniture per year, and "Balance Tex" - 400 thousand textiles. Young men and women from neighboring mahallas who were previously unemployed work and earn money in them. Due to the quality and affordability, the products replace imported analogues.
- We have enterprising, energetic people. So, we created the conditions, and things went uphill. Now it is necessary to help manufacturers reduce the cost. The cost price is a question of the entrepreneur's survival. If it decreases, it will be easier to export, the business will expand, it will be able to hire more workers," Shavkat Mirziyoyev said.
In other projects of the industrial zone, equipment is being installed. In general, it is planned to launch the production of ready-made clothing, leather goods, building materials, furniture, paper, food and chemical products.
