The Governor discussed with the investor the parameters and terms of construction of the Solnechny logistics park in Omsk

The Volga Federal District Group of Companies is ready to invest more than 10 billion rubles in the construction of the first four distribution centers for large customers. The construction of the Solnechny logistics park is included in the register of large-scale investment projects.

It should be noted that the Omsk Region Development and Investment Agency provides assistance in the implementation of the investment project. For its implementation, the Agency's specialists selected a territory in the Kirovsky District at the exit from the city and the proximity of a highway transport hub with access to federal highways. The scheme of the land plot has been approved, a lease agreement has been concluded, and the process of obtaining technical specifications for connection to utility networks is also underway.

Distribution centers will allow retail chains to ensure timely replenishment of consumer stocks, increase product quality control and minimize logistics costs. The number of retail facilities of large federal chains is growing in the Omsk region, which in turn leads to an increase in trade turnover in the region as a whole. A fully modern, European-style logistics park will be built by 2025, but the first stage will be launched in a year and a half.

- We have launched the preparation of infrastructure for the Solnechny Logistics Park project. The Omsk region government has done a lot of work, we have applied to the government commission for an infrastructure budget loan, the amount there is about 251.7 million rubles. The government commission has approved this loan and the funds have been received. As part of this large-scale project, we have provided the best land plot in Omsk, near the Western Bypass and the federal highway to Tyumen. Therefore, today we would like to compare our watches, talk again about the planned investment volumes, the timing of the implementation of these projects, so that we have a roadmap," said Governor Alexander Burkov. - It is important for our region and Omsk to have such a logistics center, because, paradoxically, all these years our agricultural producers have been supplying their products to logistics centers in Tyumen and Novosibirsk, and then from there our Omsk food products arrived on the shelves of Omsk stores. This project will help solve this problem in order to reduce the cost of goods and, consequently, lower the price for our consumer living in Omsk.

The demand for large storage facilities in Omsk has been formed and is growing rapidly. The PFS Group of companies has already made an offer to large customers and received the first residents of the logistics park.

Viktor Zheleznov, founder of the Volga Federal District Group of Companies, thanked Alexander Burkov for his support. The Ministry of Economy and the Omsk Region Development and Investment Agency are supporting the project on a one-stop-shop basis. By attracting an infrastructure budget loan, it is planned to carry out the technological connection of the logopark to engineering infrastructure facilities.

For reference: the main areas of work of the Volga Federal District company are the construction of logistics parks for federal retail chains in cities with millions of residents. In recent years, they have been creating speech parks at the expense of their own and credit funds for themselves and subsequently filling them with residents.
