A multi-storey building is under construction. 316 production shops, 336 stores, 560 retail outlets will be located here. 2 logistics centers are being created. As a result, modern conditions will appear for hundreds of entrepreneurs from Boboshbek, Bekmurod, Zigir, Palokhon and Yakkamulla mahallas.
For example, more than 5,000 people live in Boboshbek mahalla alone. Their products are supplied to the regions of the country and neighboring countries through the Kokand market. As a result of modern conditions, the geography of deliveries is expanding.
The President got acquainted with the activities of the sewing enterprises here, the conditions created for entrepreneurs and buyers.
It is expected that the complex will manufacture products worth 876 billion UZS per year, exports will amount to $18 million. Over 7.7 thousand citizens can get permanent jobs.

The Head of the state instructed to increase the level of processing and production in the textile industry.
