Darkhan-Uul /MONTSAME/ Minister of Food, Agriculture and Light Industry Ch.Ulaan became familiarized with construction work of leather and hide processing complex, which is being built in Darkhan-Uul aimag.


The light industrial and technology park will operate in directions of processing leather and hide, wool and cashmere to manufacture world-standard value added products. Construction works of an electrical power transmission and distribution substation, heating pipelines and wool washing and combing plant are currently underway and the whole complex is expected to put into operation this year.


10-15 million pieces of leather are supplied to the market a year in our country. Although it has huge resource of raw material, quality and market conditions are unsatisfactory due to not having stable supply and sales channel. As a result of  producing value added products and selling them at international market, around 755 citizens of Darkhan city will have permanent jobs and local economic growth will rise.
