Open House Event Held at Great Stone Industrial Park in Belarus

Updated: 2021-01-29

An open house event was recently held at the Great Stone Industrial Park in Belarus, showcasing development and operation of the park.

People now can no longer detect any trace of the original conditions in the area where the park is located after five years of construction and growth.

Development of the park dates back to May 12, 2015, when leaders of China and Belarus inspected the area. China National Machinery Industry Corporation Ltd (Sinomach) and China Merchants Group (CMG) took a lead in its construction.

Located in Belarus, a country in central Eurasia, the industrial park neighbors the Minsk International Airport and is traversed by the international highway running between Berlin, the capital of Germany and Moscow, the capital of Russia.

The park's location makes it a key transfer station of the China-Europe freight trains and a first choice for countries in Asia and the Eurasian Union as a place for investment and business startup.

Responding to the preferential policy given by the Belarus government, 68 enterprises in fields of comprehensive logistics, telecommunications, machinery manufacturing and biomedicine had settled down there by the end of 2020. Thirty-six of them are Chinese enterprises and 32 are based in Belarus and other countries and regions.

The enterprises have created more than 6,000 jobs and their contract investment value has reached nearly $1.22 billion.

CMG's trade and logistics park, which consists of an exhibition and trade center, a business center and a warehouse center, was the first to operate in the Great Stone Industrial Park. It is also the most invested enterprise and covers the largest area of companies in the park.

The science and technology innovation center funded by the Ministry of Commerce of the People's Republic of China went into operation at the end of 2020. Construction of the Torch Park invested by Sinomach will now begin with the park expected to focus on innovation incubation.

Such projects will boost high-quality development of the industrial park based on cutting-edge manufacturing and technological research and development.

In the livestreaming, testing of autonomous vehicles was shown to the audience.

Equipped with a 5G-based cooperative vehicle infrastructure system, real-time kinematic positioning and millimeter-wave radar developed by high-tech enterprises in the park, the autonomous vehicles operate safely and reliably in the park.

The open house event also showed the sponsors' concern for neighboring areas during development of the park.

Roads of villages within the park and football pitches nearby were renovated and kids in local charity houses also received gifts and necessities.

In the future, the park intends to evolve into an international and livable industrial center equipped with schools, hospitals and shopping malls.
