Company from Uzbekistan plans to launch major textile and logistics hub in Kazakhstan by 2027

On January 17, Turkestan region governor Nuralkhan Kusherov and Global Textile Group CEO Muzaffar Razakov discussed the project to establish the factory and logistics center in the Maktaaral district.

The Uzbek company aims to launch five major facilities, creating over 2,000 permanent jobs. The total project cost is estimated at 21 billion tenge ($39.61 million).

As part of the Global Textile Turkistan project, the company plans to establish a logistics center, a cotton processing plant, a textile factory, dyeing and spinning workshops, and garment factories. The cotton processing plant will have an annual capacity of 13,800 tons. Products will be supplied to the Kazakh market and exported to Europe.

In 2024, the company introduced "Namangan-77" cotton seeds, planting them over 3,200 hectares. The yield reportedly exceeded expectations. Additionally, a cotton reception center with an annual capacity of 10,000 tons has been completed.

The textile factory is scheduled to begin operations in 2027.
