The Zharkent Starch and Syrup Plant’s contribution to regional development

ЖКПЗ и развитие Жаркентского региона

An industrial enterprise affects not only the volume of products. It creates jobs, creates demand for agricultural raw materials, develops professional competencies and supports business activity in the region.

Processing of local agricultural raw materials

Zharkent and the surrounding areas are traditionally associated with the cultivation of corn. The presence of a processing enterprise allows you to create added value within the country, and not be limited to the sale of grain as a raw material.

Deep processing turns corn into dozens of products that are used by food, industrial and feed enterprises.

Jobs and competencies

More than 500 jobs have been created at the enterprise. The plant needs employees of different qualifications: from production operators to engineers, laboratory assistants, logisticians and managers.

Such an employment structure contributes to the development of professional skills and the formation of human resources in the region.

Connection between agriculture and industry

The plant is part of a chain that starts with seeding, growing and harvesting corn and continues with storage, processing, quality control and supply of finished products.

The more stable the interaction between agricultural producers and processors, the higher the predictability of purchases and the ability to plan the development of the raw material base.

Import substitution and export potential

The production of starch and syrups in Kazakhstan helps domestic enterprises to purchase important ingredients domestically. At the same time, the export of products contributes to the development of foreign trade and strengthening the position of Kazakhstani processing in regional markets.

Competitiveness is formed through quality, technology, logistics and the ability to meet the requirements of industrial buyers.

Long-term significance

The development of the plant creates a multiplier effect for transport, repair, supply, services and other related areas. Investments in technology and people increase the sustainability of the entire production ecosystem.

ZhKPZ continues to combine the agricultural potential of the region with industrial processing, creating products for Kazakhstan and foreign markets.
