The governor of Kuban discussed support for high-tech enterprises in the region that produce goods previously supplied from abroad. According to him, the region has launched 10 import-substituting industrial facilities over three years.
“In the Krasnodar region, we are doing everything to help our enterprises develop their own technologies and master new product lines in industries such as machine tool building, mechanical engineering, radio electronics, medicine, pharmaceuticals, and other import-dependent sectors. For this purpose, special measures have been developed,” the governor stated.
The region has launched a plant for amorphous silicon dioxide and a facility for producing components for cartridge systems in the Seversky district. A factory in the Belorechensky district was reconstructed and has begun producing special thread for hosiery manufacturing. Component production for harvesters has been localized in the Starominsky district.
In 2025, the regional administration signed agreements with investors to implement seven more import-substituting industrial projects. These projects are aimed at producing brake discs in Armavir, space-grade photovoltaic converters, components and computer boards needed for interactive equipment. Plans also include launching a glass recycling plant in Krasnodar, manufacturing steel furniture fittings in the Belorechensky district, and implementing other projects.
