Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.uz) — A Poland–Uzbekistan logistics hub has been established at ATT Logistics in Poland to increase bilateral trade and facilitate deliveries of Uzbek products to European markets, the Dunyo news agency reported.
The hub was set up as part of a visit by a delegation of Uzbek entrepreneurs to Poland, organised with support from a European Union grant project.
ATT Logistics is based in the Mazovian Voivodeship and specialises in international freight transportation across the European Union and the Commonwealth of Independent States. The company operates more than 100 Euro 6 trucks and has over 15,000 square metres of open and covered warehouse space. An area of 1,000 square metres has been allocated for the new hub.
The facility is intended to speed up deliveries of Uzbek products to Europe and expand opportunities to sell them through major retail chains across Central and Eastern Europe.
During the business mission, the Uzbek delegation met Polish Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Jacek Czerniak, representatives of the National Support Centre for Agriculture (KOWR), the state water management authority Wody Polskie and other organisations.
The entrepreneurs also visited several Polish industrial and trading companies to learn about their production capabilities and technologies.
The programme included Pronar, a manufacturer of agricultural and municipal machinery; Dary Natury, which produces organic products and medicinal herbs; Verifis, a manufacturer of modular furniture systems; and MOSCIBRODY, a meat-processing company.
Separate talks were held with the management of regional retail chain Topaz. The parties discussed export and import opportunities and the potential for joint projects.
In Bialystok, a roundtable was held at the Podlasie Association of Carriers, bringing together Polish Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Stefan Krajewski, the Uzbek delegation and representatives of major logistics companies in the region.
Participants discussed diversifying transport and logistics corridors, jointly addressing freight transportation challenges and accelerating access for Uzbek products to the European market.
According to Dunyo, the business mission laid the groundwork for stronger trade and economic ties between Tashkent Region and Polish regions, expanded industrial cooperation and the development of new joint projects.
