At a meeting of representatives of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation with representatives of the Ministry of Investment, Industry and Trade of Uzbekistan, the progress of the work of the important Agroexpress food project, for the launch and development of which our two countries signed a roadmap in June, was discussed.
According to the document, the parties agreed to increase mutual supplies of products using accelerated rail transportation for 2023-2024. The parties agreed to continue preparing the optimal model for the implementation of the project, taking into account the need to optimize the cost of rail transportation.
“Today we are working on the possibility of organizing deliveries not only in the direction of Tashkent–Moscow, but also from other regions of Uzbekistan and Russia,” said Dmitry Volvach, Deputy Minister of Economic Development of the Russian Federation. – In October, it is planned to open an agrologistic complex with a capacity of up to 810 thousand tons of products per year in Jizzakh. It is located in the agricultural products consolidation zone. In addition to Agroexperse, about 60 more projects are being worked out in the Russian-Uzbek portfolio through interregional cooperation.”
