Products
Upon reaching full operational capacity, the company will provide lease services to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) for the implementation of manufacturing projects. The available facilities include: 22,700 sq.m of industrial and warehouse space, 4,500 sq.m of office space. All premises will be divided into modular sections with the option to combine units if required. Each section will be equipped with engineering utilities, life support systems, and fire safety systems.
Project Overview
The project provides for the construction and operation of a Small Industrial Zone (SIZ) within the Astana– Technopolis Special Economic Zone (SEZ) on a land plot of 4.5 hectares. The implementation of the project will enable the establishment of a modern industrial platform for the development of priority sectors defined within the SEZ framework.
Company
The project is initiated by LLP “Astana Small Industrial Zone”. As of October 2025, the company has completed the design phase and entered the active construction stage. Reinforced concrete works are currently underway for the foundation of the facility.
Market
Kazakhstan is experiencing a severe shortage of high-quality industrial and warehouse facilities. The total supply amounts to 1.13 million sq.m, while the vacancy rate remains at 0%. By 2023–2024, facility utilization had already reached nearly 100%.
The situation is most acute in Astana: new space is being introduced in limited volumes, available premises are rapidly absorbed by tenants, and new facilities are being developed primarily on a built-to-suit basis for specific clients. Meanwhile, demand continues to grow, intensifying the shortage and creating favorable conditions for project implementation. Memorandums of intent for leasing space in the developing MPZ facilities have already been signed (Tep Global, Zenith International Trading FZC SPC).
What makes the project attractive?
- Strategic Location. The project is implemented within the Astana Technopolis Special Economic Zone in Astana, which offers developed engineering and transport infrastructure and proximity to major industrial and logistics hubs of the capital. The land plot covers 4.5 hectares, enabling the development of a modern industrial complex with production, warehouse, and office facilities.
- Government Support. The project benefits from tax and customs incentives (exemption from Corporate Income Tax, VAT, Property Tax, Land Tax, and customs duties on imported equipment). This significantly reduces operating costs for tenants and increases the project’s overall attractiveness.
- Proven Experience of the Initiator. LLP Small Industrial Zone Astana is a registered SEZ participant, holds ownership of the land plot, has an approved feasibility study, and maintains established cooperation with government authorities and development institutions.
- Modern Industrial Format. The facilities will be divided into individual sections (from 470 to 1,248 sq.m), equipped with engineering infrastructure and fire safety systems. This format allows tenants to scale production flexibly while minimizing capital expenditures.
Investment Proposal
To implement the Project, financing in the amount of USD 7,400 thousand (at the exchange rate of 540 KZT) is required, including:
- 50% (USD 3,700 thousand) – debt financing (subject to collateral security);
- 50% (USD 3,700 thousand) – investor participation.
The proposed financing structure and government support measures are indicative. The final structure of financing and the investor’s equity share in the Project will be determined based on the results of joint negotiations with the investor.
