The new zone occupies 10 hectares and includes enterprises, exhibition and trade areas. Within the framework of the implementation of the resolution of June 21, 2021, on the development of the furniture industry, 61 enterprises with an investment of $10 million were launched here. 650 jobs have already been created.

The Khankin district is traditionally known for its furniture makers: more than 500 houses in the region have private workshops. However, many of them were limited in production capabilities until recently. The new cluster provides modern conditions, including equipment from Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Turkey, and China.

The production capacity allows for the production of furniture for residential buildings, offices, hotels, and social institutions worth 108 billion soums annually. It is planned to supply products to foreign markets: exports may exceed $3 million.

A training center has also opened in the zone, where Turkish specialists train designers and technologists. The President discussed improving product quality and vocational training for young people.

Special attention is paid to energy efficiency: all enterprises are equipped with solar panels.

Having visited the showroom with samples of products, the head of state highly appreciated their quality and modern design. He also emphasized the need to link production with the growing pace of construction in the region - from residential complexes to hotels and social facilities.

Overall, more than 300 enterprises, more than 1,300 self-employed individuals, and more than 200 individual entrepreneurs operate in the furniture industry in Khorezm.
