Head of Bashkiria spoke about additional state assistance to light industry

Head of Bashkortostan, Radiy Khabirov, took part in the IV Light Industry Forum “Legprom” plenary meeting on October 25.

The head of the region said that in recent years, budget subsidies to manufacturers for the purchase of raw materials, supplies, and equipment have reached almost 500 million rubles. They work effectively, so such assistance will continue in the republic in the future.

At the same time, the management team is developing new measures of state assistance to the industry. In particular, the possibility of reimbursement of part of the costs of certification of light industry products is being considered. In addition, new projects can receive priority status after the support of the Region's Investment Committee. This makes it possible to receive tax benefits and reimburse part of the costs of implementing initiatives.

An important component of the current stage of development of the light industry is the training of qualified personnel. The head of the republic believes that attracting specialists largely depends on decent working conditions, primarily wages. In particular, clothing production averages 27 thousand rubles per month.

Another direction of industry development is work on digital trading platforms.

At the end of his speech, the Head of Bashkortostan thanked the managers and labor teams of light industry enterprises for their difficult and dedicated work.

At the plenary meeting, the head of the autonomous non-profit organization “Russian Quality System” (Roskachestvo), Maxim Protasov, highly appreciated the effectiveness of the regional policy for the development of the light industry.

He also spoke in detail about the tools Roskachestvo has for interaction with light industry enterprises. Based on the organization, research and testing of products is carried out, based on the results of which a state quality mark is issued. This allows you to promote products in various markets, including marketplaces, successfully.

Roskachestvo also conducts diagnostics of technological and organizational processes. This allows us to determine reserves for increasing labor productivity and product quality. More than 500 Russian enterprises undergo such an audit every year.

The head of Roskachestvo invited representatives of the light industry to attend thematic sessions that will be held in early November at the site of the International Forum “World Quality Day - 2023”.
