During a trip around the region, the Head of the state got acquainted with activities of our enterprise, located in Uchkun makhalla of Kurgantepa district. Our enterprise was established two years ago and operates in the form of a cotton-textile cluster. We cooperate with farmers who grow cotton on an area of 9 thousand hectares.

During the visit to the region in May last year, the President got acquainted with the project of our society for production of the textile industry. Today, this plan has been fully implemented ― a large spinning workshop has been built, equipped with Riter company's technologies (Switzerland). 400 people living here, got a permanent job.

This is the beginning of our activity. In the future we are planning to establish the production and dyeing of fabrics, release ready-made clothes and towels. The total cost of the project is 58 million euros, with the launch of the enterprise at full capacity, annual production of 9 thousand tons of yarn, 6 million meters of fabric, 10 million garments and knitwear will be established and 1,500 jobs created. We intend to increase the export volume to 40 million dollars.

Along with this, on the basis of the cluster, an oil extraction plant with a production capacity of 2 thousand tons of oil and an animal breeding complex with a production capacity of 7.5 thousand tons of meal and 5.4 thousand tons of husk are being organized.

The Head of the state examined the spinning workshop of the cluster operating in the structure of the enterprise. He gave recommendations on improving product quality, establishing exports, and creating conditions for increasing the incomes of workers.

Organization of cluster activity on the initiative of the President in the regions creates the basis for improving the competitiveness of products, occupying a worthy place not only in the domestic but also in the foreign market and most importantly, will contribute to employment of the population and improve the welfare of people.
