In accordance with the Presidential Resolution of November 18, 2024, a comprehensive set of measures has been defined to promote the socio-economic development of the region, enhance the investment climate, and support entrepreneurship in Andijan. This year, the region aims to attract $3.1 billion in investments, export goods worth $1.5 billion, create employment for 305,000 people, and lift over 32,000 families out of poverty.

Since the beginning of the year, new production capacities worth $1 billion have been launched in the region, along with 344 newly established trade and service complexes. Additionally, projects worth $2.5 billion have been initiated. Over the past six months, $850 million in investments have been attracted, and export volumes have reached $465 million.

The President’s visit to Andijan region in April and the tasks he outlined served as an additional stimulus for the region’s development. Recently, a Reform Headquarters was established with the participation of academic experts and active entrepreneurs, which has developed new proposals aimed at advancing the economy and social sector.

During the presentation, responsible officials justified these initiatives and outlined their expected effectiveness.

For instance, the creation of an innovative clinic using robotic technologies from Germany, Türkiye, and Japan is planned, with an investment volume of $40 million. With the support of diplomatic missions abroad, negotiations are also underway to attract €20 million from Italy for the establishment of an agro-cluster, and €25 million from Germany for the construction of a modern agro-logistics complex. In the city of Khanabad, as well as in Khojaabad and Bulakbashi districts, over 30 initiatives have been developed to create tourism zones.

In total, a portfolio of additional projects worth $1.1 billion has been formed. The implementation of these projects is expected to create 22,000 new jobs and increase annual exports by an extra $200 million.

The President particularly emphasized the need for an individualized approach to each city and district within the region, as well as the importance of locating new projects in areas with the lowest levels of investment inflow. Instructions were given to organize training and employment for the unemployed and families in need, and to take measures to transform mahallas into crime-free zones.
