Astana, Aug. 25 (Xinhua) — In Kazakhstan, trade volume increased by 8.6 percent in January-July 2025. Investments in the trade sector in the first half of the year grew by 37 percent, reaching 438 billion tenge, Kazinform reported on Monday, citing the country's government.

According to Kazinform, in the message of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev “Fair Kazakhstan: law and order, economic growth, public optimism” the development of trade and expansion of the country’s export potential are named as the most important areas of state policy. In this regard, the government is implementing measures to support domestic producers, stimulate non-resource exports and create conditions for small and medium businesses.

“Over 800 thousand business entities are involved in trade, providing jobs for over 1.5 million people,” noted Minister of Trade and Integration Arman Shakkaliyev.

According to the agency, amendments were made to the legislation on determining the country of origin of goods in May 2025. A single register of domestic producers is being formed, which will allow them to gain access to government support measures, as well as participate in government and quasi-government procurement.

In order to stimulate trade, a program is in place that provides for at least 50 percent of shelf space for products of Kazakhstani manufacturers. At the same time, quality control over imported products is being strengthened. According to the ministry, during inspections, more than 900 vehicles with goods were returned and over 1,000 conformity documents were cancelled.

According to the Export Credit Agency, the volume of support provided for the first seven months of this year amounted to 394 billion tenge, which is more than 200 billion more than the same period last year. About 71 percent of supported projects are for small and medium businesses, while the share of medium and high value added products is 83 percent.

According to the government, an international infrastructure is being formed to promote Kazakhstani goods abroad. In China, there are national pavilions and partner offices in Chengdu, Urumqi, Nanjing and Shandong Province. In Uzbekistan, a representative center of Kazakhstan has been opened on the territory of the international complex "Termez". Work is also underway in the UAE, Turkey, India, Iran and other countries. –0–
