AKIPRESS.COM - BelAZ aims to initiate the construction of an assembly platform for mining equipment production in Uzbekistan in 2024, Kun.uz reported.

Belarus and Uzbekistan will establish a joint venture, with stakes divided on a parity basis. On one side, the partner will be the company Haul Trucks-CA, and on the other, the appointment of an Uzbek partner is expected.

The localization level of BelAZ's mining equipment production in the republic will gradually increase and is expected to reach 30% in the future. The project's implementation site is yet to be determined and is being discussed with local partners.

In the first stage, up to 20 dump trucks per year will be produced. The project's capacity is expected to multiply by 20-25% in the future.
