Construction has commenced on a state-of-the-art customs and logistics center, Global Hub, in the Alamudun district of Kyrgyzstan’s northern Chui region, near the capital, Bishkek.
The center will cover more than 136,000 square meters, including 120,000 square meters of modern warehouses. These facilities will feature temperature-controlled environments, refrigeration systems for perishable goods, and dedicated storage for medicines. Additionally, the complex will include dry and bonded warehouses to support various logistical needs.
The $21 million project is being implemented by Alkanov Group LLC, a local company.
On December 26 the new Chairman of Kyrgyzstan’s Cabinet of Ministers, Adylbek Kasymaliyev, highlighted the strategic importance of the project. He noted that Kyrgyzstan’s warehousing sector is still in its infancy and lacks facilities that meet international standards.
“This strategic project addresses current challenges and holds great importance for the state. If the construction of the China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan railway is completed by 2030 and the Bedel checkpoint on the Kyrgyz-Chinese border begins operating at full capacity, Kyrgyzstan’s warehousing market will expand significantly,” Kasymaliyev said.
He emphasized the necessity of preparing for growing import and export demands, adding, “Millions of tons of cargo are processed and transported globally every day. The construction of large warehouses, logistics centers, and hubs will drive economic development in Kyrgyzstan.”
