Bashkiria will conclude agreements for 79.5 billion rubles at "Trans-Urals" investment bank

On September 10-11, the All-Russian Investment Sabantuy "Trans-Urals-2021" will take place in Sibay. As part of the event, Bashkiria plans to conclude over 20 agreements for a total amount of about 79.5 billion rubles. This was announced by the Prime Minister of the Government of the Republic Andrei Nazarov. According to him, this will create more than 2.6 thousand new jobs in the region.

He noted that the authorities are planning to form additional tax and other incentive preferences in the Trans-Urals.

“This year, only with the help of such instruments as SEZ and PDA, we have attracted 9 billion rubles to the republic, creating 856 jobs. Bashkortostan, as you remember, hit the top 5 of the national rating of the state of the investment climate, ”Andrei Nazarov emphasized.

The Prime Minister recalled that a new program for the development of the Trans-Urals has been developed. “We pay special attention to the construction and reconstruction of social facilities, schools and kindergartens. Also in early June, at SPIEF-2021, we signed a contract for the construction of soil improvement systems in the Trans-Urals. Today this direction is more relevant than ever. Also, together with UMMC and Russian Railways, we are developing a project for the Sibay-Sara railway line. It will pass through the Baimaksky and Khaibullinsky districts of the republic and will provide not only a connection between the deposits of non-ferrous metals and the processing enterprises of Sibay and Buribai, but also enable our state to have another branch of communication with Kazakhstan, more than 200 km shorter. Further development of the Khudolaz deposit will close the raw material problem for the enterprise for many years, and the Sibay agglomeration will provide a large source of investment,” Andrei Nazarov said.

Representatives of federal and regional government institutions, Russian and foreign business, investors, experts and public figures traditionally take part in the investment Sabantuy.

On August 6, within the framework of a working meeting, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Head of the Republic Radiy Khabirov discussed the implementation of the investment potential of the region. At the end of 2020, the volume of investments in the republican economy reached 365 billion rubles. Radiy Khabirov noted that by 2024 the authorities would bring this level to 600 billion rubles a year.

The Head of the Region said that the Government of Russia provided significant support in this part, granting last year the status of a special economic zone to sites in Sterlitamaksky and Ishimbaysky districts. “We are already building factories there. We currently have 16 residents. The total volume of investments is 14 billion rubles, and the total is potentially up to 100 billion rubles, ” Radiy Khabirov said.

Earlier, Bashinform reported that a new modern plant for the production of white cement Cemix Prowhite was launched in Bashkiria. Russian President Vladimir Putin took part in the official opening ceremony of production. The construction of the enterprise began in November 2018, with a total investment of 5.7 billion rubles. In total, 220 jobs will be created, now the plant employs 145 people, 40 percent of them are residents of the Abzelilovsky district. In the future, it is planned to build microcalcite (limestone grinding) production facilities with a capacity of 100 thousand tons per year, as well as the preparation and packaging of building mixtures with a capacity of 100 thousand tons per year.
