The president got acquainted with the activities of the furniture manufacturing complex in Buvayda District of Ferghana Region.

A furniture manufacturing is a family business for many people in Buvayda. Manufacturing doors and frames in home workshops are widespread here. Their products are supplied not only to the Fergana Valley, but also to the city of Tashkent and distant regions.

However, the small area of the yards, the weather and the noise factor do not allow for wide expansion of the production. A furniture manufacturing complex was built at a makhalla (the local neighborhood community area) to create favorable conditions for Buvayda craftsmen.

The President got acquainted with the conditions created here. There are production workshops, two-storey buildings for trade, exhibition and office space.

The President spoke with the artisans who started working in the new building.

 “They came here through hard work. Now are ready to work even every day. We just need a stable supply of raw materials and a market. If the state helps in this regard, the work of artisans will go up, they will have more apprentices, and incomes will increase”, Shavkat Mirziyoyev has said.

The instructions were given to expand the cultivation of trees as a raw material for the furniture industry in Karakalpakstan and the regions.

In addition to supplies to the domestic market, the complex plans to export its products to Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan.  It is expected to employ more than 3.7 thousand people when the complex starts operating at full capacity.
