The Main Southern City of Kazakhstan Will Host the Building Exhibition for the First Time

Iteca, the organizer of prestigious building exhibitions throughout Kazakhstan, such as KazBuild, Aqua-Therm Almaty and AstanaBuild, is glad to announce that in 2015 the portfolio of the events of the present sector will be widened with the South Kazakhstan International Building Exhibition – ShymkentBuild. The mentioned event will be held on March 11 – 13, in Shymkent.

Modern Shymkent with its population of more than half a million is among the three largest cities in Kazakhstan, as well as being one of the leading industrial and economic centres of the country. Dynamically and fast-growing city is located on the border between Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan. In recent years, Shymkent has changed largely due to the rapid development of entrepreneurship and business not only in Shymkent, but also in the Region of South Kazakhstan. The industrial profile of the region is determined with nonferrous-metals industry, chemical and petrochemical industry, and machine building.

According to the experts, the competition in the construction business is quite high, both throughout Kazakhstan and in the City of Shymkent. But this does not prevent new participants of the sector to grow in the services market. This is partly explained by the high demand. In recent years, Kazakhstan is actively solving the housing problems of its population and Shymkent holds one of the leading places in the country on the pace of construction. In January - October 2014, KZT 22.3 bln. of investments were directed for housing or 199.1% to the corresponding period of the last year. The total area of housing placed in operation was 307.2 ths. sq. m.; the index of actual volume of housing placed in operation amounted to 111.7% compared with the same period in 2013.

Due to the promising development of the construction and related sectors in the region and its location on the border with Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan, the organizers expect that ShymkentBuild will become an annual significant event for the region's economic development.

ShymkentBuild will become a meeting place for the largest international and domestic manufacturers, experts from leading construction companies, architects and designers to exchange experiences and establish contacts.

ShymkentBuild 2015 will present the newest technologies and developments, products and services of the leading companies engaged in the sectors of construction, interior design, window technologies, ceramics and stone, heating and ventilation, and road construction.
