Today, a ceremony dedicated to the start of the construction of industrial park “A Plus Park Alabuga” took place in special economic zone “Alabuga”. The event was attended by President of the Republic of Tatarstan Rustam Minnikhanov, Minister of Economic Development of Russia Aleksei Ulyukayev, Head of Yelabuzhsky municipal area of Tatarstan Gennady Yemelyanov, Director General of SEZ “Alabuga” Timur Shagivaleyev and Executive Director of the Association of Innovative Regions of Russia Ivan Bortnik.
The industrial park is a manufacturing facility with the complete infrastructure. “A Plus Park Alabuga” in all respects will comply with class A requirements. The four buildings with a total area of 200 thousand square meters will be able to accommodate at least 20 companies - residents of the SEZ. All of them will be able to enjoy tax and customs privileges of a special economic zone.
“I am pleased to join the cause of creating the centers of the economic growth we are so short of. The development of such industries suggests that we are moving away from the resource-based economy”, said Aleksei Ulyukayev.
“We are already building industrial park “Sinergya” by the title of the SEZ. And here we are launching a new kind of business - a new industrial park will be built by an investor. Our task is to create the conditions for business”, said Rustam Minnikhanov.

The first stage involves the construction of the housing area of 47 thousand square meters, and it will be completed in the first quarter of 2015. The second stage of the construction is 50 thousand square meters, and finally, the third stage will involve the construction of two buildings with a total area of 100 thousand square meters, and they will be completed by the fourth quarter of 2017. The investment will be 200 million US dollars. The project will pay back in 10 years.
