Regional cooperation in new format

Belarus and Russia’s Tula region encourage small and medium-sized businesses to join the cooperation chain in foreign trade. Enterprises in the regions have been working together for a long time. Chemical industry, metallurgy, and machine building are the undisputed leaders. New niches are also opening up. Tula is ready to increase purchases of our food packaging, fruit and vegetables, and raw materials for aerosol production. Cooperation between Belarusian and Tula companies is supported by the regional government. Another tool to simplify access to the Belarusian market is the exchange platform. It is an alternative to the traditional commodity distribution network. The exchange trade will be based on mutual supplies of import-substituting products. The project is already under active development.
