This week, the Freeport of Ventspils Authority together with port entrepreneurs and other representatives of the Latvian transport and logistics industry is participating in the 20th international exhibition and business forum “TransLogistica Uzbekistan 2024”.
Uzbek entrepreneurs are very interested in partnering with Latvia as a transport and logistics service center to export Uzbek goods to Europe. A growing interest in the possible transit of mineral fertilizers and various agricultural products through Latvia can be seen in the negotiations with the Uzbek businessmen. Uzbekistan is one of the most important Central Asian economies with a prominent development potential; thus, the country plays a crucial role as a collaboration partner of the Freeport of Ventspils Authority.
