“Aksu Ferroalloy Plant purchases 500000 big bags, “KSP Steel” LP is ready to buy such products. Some people have not heard, for example, about the company producing non-standard equipment, where a mobile laboratory can be built. Therefore, we invite representatives of our large backbone plants to visit small enterprises”, akim said.

Bulat Bakauov noted that industrialists and small and medium-sized business have begun to sign long-term contracts. As an example, “AksuTransLogistik” LP has concluded the agreement with Aksu Ferroalloy Plant for domestic transportation for 2.5 years.

In this case, there are a lot of pluses: In the near future AFP has solved the problem of intra-factory logistics and its contractor will have the opportunity to develop”, the head of the Department of Industrial and Innovative Development Nurbolat Seitmagambetov noted.
