President Shavkat Mirziyoyev emphasized the need for a special approach to developing light industry amid rapidly changing global trade rules and ongoing logistics disruptions. The head of state announced the creation of the Agency for the Development of Light Industry, which will oversee the textile, leather, and silk sectors. The agency will be headed by First Deputy Minister of Investments, Industry, and Trade Nozimjon Kholmurodov. A council of experienced entrepreneurs will operate under the agency, along with a dedicated $200 million fund to provide affordable working capital to enterprises. The new body has been tasked with working with entrepreneurs to develop solutions for reducing production costs, increasing manufacturing and exports, and doubling the export of finished goods through the &ldquo;processing in the customs territory&rdquo; regime. It will also focus on strengthening cooperation and rehabilitating underperforming enterprises. In collaboration with international consultants, a development program for the textile sector through 2030 will be prepared, alongside proposals to modernize the leather, silk, and carpet industries. The president stressed that the announced support measures amount to 7 trillion soums and demanded corresponding results from cluster and enterprise leaders. Strict control will be maintained over the implementation of the assigned tasks.Powered by <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1" title="Froala Editor">Froala Editor</a>

In the context of changing global trade rules and unstable logistics, President Shavkat Mirziyoyev announced the establishment of the Light Industry Development Agency, which will be headed by Nozimjon Kholmurodov. The new structure will receive $200 million to support the industry and strictly control its effectiveness.

The sector&rsquo;s total commercial loan debt stands at $2.2 billion, with 90&ndash;95% of the loans denominated in foreign currency. Only 16% of companies hold international quality certificates. &ldquo;How can enterprises compete on global markets and repay their loans under such conditions?&rdquo; the president asked. While each region has 10&ndash;15 manufacturers of finished products, cooperation with brands and transition to modern standards remain slow. In Andijan, Namangan, Fergana, Navoi, and Tashkent regions, processing capacities are 2&ndash;2.5 times greater than the volume of local raw materials, yet regional investment programs still include yarn projects &mdash; a decision criticized by the head of state. The president also stressed the importance of more active support from Uzbekistan&rsquo;s diplomatic missions abroad in promoting textile exports.Powered by <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1" title="Froala Editor">Froala Editor</a>

At a meeting on the development of the textile industry, President Shavkat Mirziyoyev sharply criticized certain entrepreneurs who, lacking sufficient fiber processing capacity, use cheap state resources for cotton speculation.

The sharp decline in global cotton prices has put Uzbekistan&rsquo;s textile industry under significant pressure. At a video conference chaired by President Shavkat Mirziyoyev, urgent measures were set to safeguard production, jobs, and export capacity. The textile sector accounts for 3% of the country&rsquo;s GDP and 14% of industrial output. Over the past five years, $3.5 billion has been invested, 396 large enterprises have been launched, and production volumes have reached $10 billion. More than 500,000 people are employed in the industry, representing around 20% of the national industrial workforce. However, recent months have seen a slowdown in production and exports. The main reason is the steady fall in global cotton prices since 2022. In the past three years, prices have dropped from $3,000 to $1,500 per ton, dealing a severe blow to the cluster system. Many producers are forced to repay old debts using proceeds from the new harvest. To support the sector, the government has extended concessional loans for cotton purchases from 2022&ndash;2023 three times, and last year provided subsidies of 1 million soums per ton to stabilize prices. President Mirziyoyev emphasized that the crisis was foreseeable and instructed the economic leadership, in cooperation with scientific institutions, to develop multiple scenarios and comprehensive solutions to ensure the industry&rsquo;s long-term stability.Powered by <a href="https://www.froala.com/wysiwyg-editor?pb=1" title="Froala Editor">Froala Editor</a>
