Dear readers! In September the CeMAT RUSSIA exhibition was held, which showed everyone that innovations and robotics are increasingly penetrating the logistics industry. We can safely say that many technologies are tested here, and only then they go out into the world. However, it is not only CeMAT RUSSIA that demonstrates the prevalence of the digital agenda.
Dear readers! This is the ninth issue of the journal, which turned out to be very rich and diverse. Traditionally, the issue is opened by an analyst. The material by Alina Nasyrova from the Market Guide Agency, dedicated to investments in warehouse complexes in Russia, recalls the importance of developing logistics infrastructure for the integrated development of regions.
Dear readers! We present to your attention the eighth issue of the magazine and its materials.
Sinara - Transport Mashines (STM) has created its new subsidiary to operate in Kazakhstan - STM Kazakhstan. This is a joint venture with the STM share of 75 % and that of the second founder, the Kazakh Eurotrans Group, of 25 %.
The required corporate procedures were completed on 5 March 2021. The company has all the necessary licenses and permits to work on the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan and to implement infrastructure projects.
Anton Zubikhin, STM Deputy CEO, said: „Expanding our export presence is one of our top priorities. We began our work to strengthen the position of STM in Kazakhstan in 2020, and the creation of a separate subsidiary is a logical continuation of our expansion into this market. Our partner Eurotrans Group is one of the largest players in the railway logistics market in Kazakhstan.”
The joint venture will supply rolling stock and track equipment produced by STM, will carry out its repair and maintenance, and will also provide infrastructure services for rail welding, rail grinding and other types of work related to the maintenance of railways. In the near future, STM Kazakhstan plans to take part in a number of KTZ tenders for the supply of equipment and spare parts.
In addition, the sphere of interests of the joint venture includes the development of cooperation with private and state industrial companies in Kazakhstan. In 2020, industrial enterprises of Kazakhstan purchased eight diesel shunters produced by STM (LTZ).
