By orders and instructions of the head of state, the limited liability company "Akia Avesto Automotive Industry" has completed the construction and officially introduced into operation the bus-assembling plant.

The company was established as a joint plant by a domestic company "Avesto Group LLC" and a Turkish trading company "Ulishem" with the aim of facilitating the set national goal of industrializing the country.

This joint Tajik-Turkish plant reportedly has an annual production capacity of 300 vehicles. The number of local specialists will make up around 200 people. The construction and installation of the production line of public passenger transport plant costs 90 million somoni.

The produced and assembled buses conform to the Euro 5 standards and are equipped with Mercedes-Benz and ZF Friedrichshafen AG engines. All spare parts are high quality and are purchased with a special guarantee from renowned German and Turkish companies. The plan is to produce five different types of buses in stages.

The joint plant’s aim is to supply the demand of Tajikistan as well as to export to other countries in the region.
