Tatarstan President visits a private industrial site in Alkeevsky region of the republic

On April 15, during his working visit to Alekseevsky region of the republic, Tatarstan President Rustam Minnikhanov together with Head of the region Aleksandr Nikoshin visited a private industrial site in the village of Nizhnee Alkeevo.

With a total area of 8.7 hectares, the region's first private industrial site was established by local entrepreneur Damir Shaikhutdinov in 2002. The field of activity of its residents covers a number of areas, including freight transportation, repair of vehicles and equipment, production of vegetable oils and fats, production of concrete and concrete products. The site employs 117 people.

During the special regime because of the risk of the spread of Covid-19, all employees are provided with the necessary protective equipment, and the sanitary and epidemiological requirements are monitored at the site.

While looking around production workshops, Minnikhanov was told about the activities of residents of the industrial site and plans for its further development. In particular, this year it is planned to build a milk processing workshop at the site.

Moreover, oil and fat production capacities will be developed. Today, two lines for the extraction of vegetable oil from sunflower process up to 80 tonnes of raw materials per day. The quality of products is monitored in a special laboratory. Products are sold in Tatarstan, and also supplied to the Perm Territory, Chelyabinsk Region and the Republic of Bashkortostan.

Minnikhanov appreciated the development of food production facilities. “Despite the crisis, it is necessary to continue production and to retain the staff. This is even more applicable to the food industry,” Tatarstan President emphasized.
