Petropavl Airport will become a key multimodal logistics hub for the region

Today, Gauez Nurmukhambetov, Akim of the region, held an official meeting with Bekezhan Zhakeyev, Chairman of the Board of Kazpost JSC, to discuss the prospects for transforming Petropavl Airport into a regional multimodal logistics hub.

"The region's strategically advantageous geographic location, proximity to the border with the Russian Federation, and location at the intersection of key transport and logistics routes create the perfect conditions for the project's implementation. The existing infrastructure of Petropavl Airport allows for the handling of cargo flights, the transshipment of cargo, and the gradual development of terminal and service infrastructure," the akim of the region noted.

The creation of a multimodal logistics hub will be an important step in strengthening interregional and international trade and economic ties, as well as enhancing the region's competitiveness as one of the country's key logistics hubs. For his part, the head of QazPost confirmed the company's interest in expanding cooperation with North Kazakhstan region. Currently, they are jointly exploring ways to attract investors for the further implementation of the project.
