The relevant agreement was signed between Alyuminsokhtmon OJSC of Tajikistan and Avtosanoat Invest LLC.

The project will be implemented within the framework of agreements reached during the visit of the Minister of Industry and New Technologies of Tajikistan Sherali Kabir to Uzbekistan on April 21, 2021, Uzavtosanoat website reports.

To implement the project, a working group of Uzavtosanoat JSC visited Tajikistan on May 5-7, 2021 to study the production capacity of the partner company Alyuminsokhtmon and hold talks on the JV establishment.
