Import substitution in action is demonstrated by the enterprises of the domestic light industry. Mogilev-based "Lenta" managed not only to retain its staff (over a thousand specialists), but also to significantly expand the product line. The assortment already includes 11 thousand items. Now there is joint work with Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. And the main sales market is still Russia. Making a competitive product that attracts the buyer thanks to price and quality is the invariable success formula for the "8 Marta" factory in Gomel. In conditions of import deficit the manufacturer launched a line of thermal underwear from domestic raw materials using chemical textile yarn produced by "Svetlogorskkhimvolokno". These fabrics do not burn and or melt. In 20203 the output of finished products and fabrics is forecasted to be within 102%.
