The list of residents of the Arctic zone of Russia from the Murmansk region was replenished with two new participants. These are LLC "Murmansk Abrasive Plant" with a project to create a production of abrasive materials in the village of Nickel and LLC "Razvitie", which presented a project for the construction of a network of mini-hotels in the Kandalaksha district.
"We see that since the beginning of the year, four companies from the Murmansk region have received the status of a resident of the AZ of the Russian Federation. This confirms that the preferential regimes adopted are in effect. These investment projects give the region new jobs and taxes to the federal and regional budgets, " commented the Governor of the Murmansk Region Andrey Chibis.
MAZ LLC plans to build a plant for the production of granulated slag, which is widely used for processing steel and concrete, cleaning surfaces from dirt and preparing for painting. The planned production capacity is about 20 thousand tons of products per year. The volume of investments under the project is more than 54 million rubles. The creation of a new production facility in Nickel will partially diversify the economy of the Pechenga district after the closure of the smelting plant of JSC "KGMK" and breathe new life into the village.
The Development LLC project is designed to meet the rapidly growing demand for tourist services in the Kandalaksha district, where the main problem is the lack of accommodation facilities. We are talking about the construction of mini-hotels. The total investment volume is 15 million rubles, the implementation period is the end of 2023.
To date, the number of residents of the AZ of the Russian Federation includes 19 companies from the Murmansk region.
