Initiator of the project for the construction of the logistics center "Vostok 16" Azat Vagapov

Tell us about your project?

The idea arose due to two main factors:

1) shortage of warehouse space

2) construction of the M12 highway

The logistics center will operate around the clock, in three shifts.

Land plot - about 24 hectares

Warehouse space - more than 110,000 square meters. It will be divided into 3 types:

1) dry, 2) refrigeration, 3) production (general purpose)

My team and I will use the advantage of the location on the M12 highway to the maximum, so we are also planning to place a showroom, advertising stands.

The estimated number of jobs is 2,500 thousand

We do not plan to attract employees from other regions, and at the moment there are potential tenants of the premises. There is no doubt that there will be no free square meters left in the logistics center. From the latest news - together with the Investment Development Agency of the Republic of Tatarstan, we plan to involve Islamic banking in the project, since our project fully meets the criteria, that is, complies with the norms of Sharia.

How did the Investment Development Agency of the Republic of Tatarstan, the municipality, help you? Are you satisfied with the work on your project?

We came up with a proposal to place a logistics center near the M12 highway to Marat Ziatdinov, the head of the Verkhneuslonsky district. Then we defended the draft design, which was subsequently approved by him. Marat Galimzyanovich saw potential in it and advised us to contact the Investment Development Agency. My team and I listened and re-presented our project to the Investment Development Agency. The Agency supported the idea, appointed a curator, and from that very moment we have been working together. We make various requests, collect a package of documents, conduct financial analyses. We resolve all work issues through the Agency, since with its help things always go much faster. We highly value the work of the employees of the organizational department, the team is extremely competent. We are always given detailed answers to questions that arise during the work process, and sometimes even tolerate our meticulousness.

Why did you choose the Republic of Tatarstan for your investment activities? Did you have other options?

No, there were no other options, since we are driven by the desire to bring at least a part, but still benefit to our native republic, because I was born and raised here and I want to repay my native land with kindness. That is, to have a hand in improving the economy, investment attractiveness of Tatarstan, Islamic banking. In addition, my team and I are attracted by logistics, namely the M12 highway that is being completed. There is no doubt that in some time it will be fully loaded. Also, we want to be one of the first projects implemented with the help of Islamic banking.

What is the value of your project?

There is a certain shortage of refrigerated warehouses in the republic. We plan to have a hand in closing this need. Also, by implementing our idea, we hope to improve the investment climate in Tatarstan, be useful and help our native land.
