On April 1, a ceremonial capsule laying for the new leather processing plant of LLC "Asyl Teri" took place in the Chui region. The event was attended by the Minister of Water Resources, Agriculture, and Processing Industry of the Kyrgyz Republic, Erlis Akunbekov. The plant will be located in the Chui agro-industrial zone. Information provided by the Ministry of Water Resources, Agriculture, and Processing Industry of the Kyrgyz Republic.
This project reflects the strategy of the President of the Kyrgyz Republic, Sadyr Japarov, aimed at developing the processing industry, creating added value, and increasing export potential. The Minister emphasized that Kyrgyzstan is actively transitioning from exporting raw materials to producing ready-made competitive products.
The construction of the plant is being carried out on an area of 103 hectares within the Chui agro-industrial zone, which belongs to JSC "Kyrgyz Agroholding," subordinate to the ministry. The total investment in the project amounts to 12 million US dollars, of which 5 million US dollars is allocated by the state. After completion, the plant will be able to process up to 24 tons of raw leather per day.
The launch of the plant will create conditions for the rational use of the raw material base of animal husbandry and will allow for the formation of a complete production cycle in the leather industry, producing competitive products for domestic and foreign markets. The leather of cattle and other animals, which was previously unused, will be utilized for the production of shoes and other products.
The project is managed based on public-private partnership in collaboration with the company "Toybos," and technological cooperation has been established with partners from Turkey. This project is an important step for the agro-industrial complex and the strengthening of the processing industry in the country. ```
