The Turkmenistan’s Ministry of Textile Industry has announced the establishment of three new textile mills in the country that are expected to be operational from February 2014.
The mills will be set up in Kunyaurgench district of the Dashoguz region, and Turkemanabat and Seydi cities of Lebap region of Turkmenistan.
According to the Ministry report, the project is being executed by Turkish Norsel International Insaat Dis Ticaret Sanayi Limited, and construction has already begun.
Individually, the textile mills in Kunyaurgench and Seydi will have a production capacity of 6000 tons of cotton yarn per annum, while the one in Turkmenabat will produce 4000 tons of cotton yarn in a year, according to en.trendz.az report.
The cotton grown in Turkmenistan is majorly utilised by the 36 operational textile mills in the country, and is also exported in its raw form to Ukraine, Russia, South Korea, China, Turkey, Britain, Indonesia, Iran, Singapore and the Baltic countries.
Last year, Turkmenistan harvested around 1.235 million tons of cotton, up 12.6 percent year-on-year.
