President Shavkat Mirziyoyev visited the Amilov confectionery factory.

The enterprise with a project cost of 62 million dollars was organized on the site of the former Tashkent paint and varnish factory. After the reconstruction of the factory building, the enterprise was put into operation on October 5 of the current year. Here modern equipment is installed from countries such as Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Austria, and the Netherlands. It employs almost 830 people.

The company produces about 50 thousand tons of confectionery per year. 60 types of products such as chocolate, candy, cookies, waffles are produced here.

Previously, such products were mainly imported. Confectionery products of the Amilov due to their inexpensive relative to foreign analogues price and quality quickly took a strong position in the domestic market. As a result, the import of such products into the country has decreased by forty percent. Moreover, the company intends to export products worth 10 million dollars a year.

The Head of the state gave instructions on expanding production capacity of the enterprise, increasing the number of such factories, localization of production of other types of imported products.
