Tashkent Reinforces Its Position as a Key Hub for Regional Trade and Investment in Central Asia

Tashkent continues to strengthen its role as a key city for regional trade, investment, and industrial cooperation, reflecting Uzbekistan’s ongoing efforts to deepen international economic ties and enhance regional connectivity.

Beyond trade figures, this growing connectivity is creating wider implications across the retail ecosystem.
