Discount Retail Chain HAVAS Uzbekistan owner Strategic Development Team LLC amounted 307.6 billion soums, equivalent to US$ 27 million. The deal holds immense significance as one of the largest transactions concluded on the E-auksion platform to date. Remarkably, it surpasses the previous record set last December when Do’mbrobod City Group acquired a land plot in the same district for 266.4 billion soums. This highlights the notable history and the growing commercial importance of the E-auksion platform.
Acquisition of the Algoritm Plant and Strategic Development Team's Purchase
The Algoritm plant in Tashkent, formerly known for producing refrigerators, split-air conditioners, and washing machines under the Candy and Roison brands, played a significant role in the manufacturing sector. In May 2018, the Uzbekistan government extended a special invitation to German companies to establish an industrial zone within the premises of the Algorithm plant, reflecting a strive for international collaboration and industrial development. Subsequently, in July 2021, the decision to include the plant in the privatization program marked a pivotal shift in ownership and management. On the E-auksion trading platform, the Strategic Development Team LLC emerged as the single bidder, securing the acquisition with an offer of 307.6 billion soums, showcasing a strong interest in expanding their commercial portfolio.
