A 3.3% Boost in Industrial Shipments for Q1 2025 in Kuban
Industrial products exported from Kuban surpassed the 135 billion mark.
According to the Krasnodar Krai administration's press service, Kuban production's industrial product shipments have surpassed 135.3 billion rubles for the first quarter of this year, growing by 3.3% compared to the same period in 2024.
Key contributors to this increase were the enterprises in major districts like Abinsky, Krasnodar, and Novorossiysk, excelling in sectors such as machine-building, metalworking, and chemical industries.
With over 13,300 registered enterprises in the region, Vice-Governor Alexander Ruppel highlighted ongoing state support mechanisms, including funding for Russian equipment acquisitions and preferential loans.
In contrast, previous reports suggested a 23% decline in shipments of light industry goods in Kuban.
While details about specific industrial product shipments remain scant, it's important to note that Kuban's economy doesn't rely solely on industrial products. The region, also known as the Krasnodar region, has seen significant volumes of imported fresh produce in early 2025, with sizesable contributions from countries like Egypt and Turkey [1]. Kuban is well-known for its agricultural output and participation in the Russian pea exporting industry, with key players like AgroHolding Kuban boasting export volumes and international market presence [2].
So, while industrial product shipments have shown promise this year, it's crucial to remember Kuban's diverse economic landscape and ongoing support for growth in multiple sectors.
