From February 10th to 12th, Tashkent, Uzbekistan, is hosting UzBuild—the largest event in the construction and interior design industries in Central Asia. Russian Export Center (REC, VEB.RF Group) presented a large-scale national exhibit at the venue under the Made in Russia brand, bringing together 12 leading domestic manufacturers from Moscow, St. Petersburg, Belgorod, Tomsk, Novosibirsk, Ulyanovsk, Vologda, Kirov, and Penza.
UzBuild has traditionally been the flagship event for Uzbekistan's construction industry. In terms of the number of exhibitors and the scale of its exhibition, it is the region's number one business platform, covering the full production cycle: from facility design and construction materials production to finishing and interior design.
The high interest in Russian solutions was confirmed by the results of the very first day: the national exhibition hosted over 90 targeted B2B meetings with potential partners from Central Asian countries. Russian participants presented modern construction materials, high-tech equipment, and innovative design and real estate solutions.
Participation in joint stands under the Made in Russia brand remains one of the most sought-after government support measures. Companies submitted applications for participation in this and other international exhibitions digitally through My Export platform. REC not only organizes the joint stand and provides on-site support for participants, but also co-finances a significant portion of the companies' participation costs. Furthermore, the Center's experts ensure high-quality networking, selecting relevant buyers and distributors for each exporter in advance. My Export platform tool allows businesses to plan their exhibition activities years in advance, selecting the most promising sales markets.
