According to the State Statistics Committee, large enterprises in Uzbekistan produced 57.2 trillion soums worth of food products in the first five months of 2026, a 7.9% increase compared to the previous year. Increased production volumes also entail higher requirements for ingredients: even a slight deviation in moisture or viscosity on the production line can alter the texture of the entire batch.

Therefore, confectionery factories, bakeries, and semi-finished product manufacturers value not only the price per kilogram, but also consistency of results, adherence to storage conditions, the ability to order samples, and direct contact with the supplier's technologist.

From Introductions to Specific Questions

The Russian Export Center's program for promoting Russian products under the national brand "Made in Russia" helps establish such connections. It combines voluntary certification with industry exhibitions, business missions, business meetings, and digital platforms.
An Uzbek manufacturer or distributor can quickly find a Russian supplier of certified products and begin discussing technical specifications, packaging, temperature conditions, minimum order quantities, and recipe adjustments. Thus, international promotion leads to a concrete business outcome — a professional dialogue about future supplies.

Adapting a Product to a Production Line

The Lev-Tolstoy Dairy Plant participates in a food industry program. The company specializes in producing milk-containing products with added fat for the confectionery and bakery industries, convenience food manufacturers, and the HoReCa segment. The plant's monthly production capacity is 700 tons, and its product range includes more than 35 products.

The plant produces cream cheese, PateMilk soft margarines, milk-containing creams, and dessert bases. Margarines and cream cheese have been certified under the national brand "Made in Russia."

It's important for a technologist to be able to adapt a basic recipe to specific production conditions. The company can adjust parameters such as moisture, fat content, and viscosity of the product, and its in-house laboratory monitors its properties at various stages of production. Some types of soft margarine can be stored frozen at -18°C for 180 days, facilitating cross-border logistics planning.

First, testing, then scaling

The minimum order quantity is 500 kg per SKU. This opens up the opportunity for large companies to conduct tests on their own production lines and evaluate product performance in applications such as cream, beverage, or bakery production. ISO 22000/HACCP certification and Halal status provide additional assurance to professional buyers when selecting a partner.

In a volatile market, Lev-Tolstovsky Dairy Plant remains a reliable partner, consistently fulfilling all its obligations. Free product samples of any type are available upon request.

For the food industry in Uzbekistan, suppliers willing to discuss specific technological challenges, rather than simply offering a standard product catalog, are especially valuable. The "Made in Russia" ecosystem facilitates such dialogue, and the manufacturer's production expertise serves as the basis for the transition from laboratory samples to working recipes.
