Dear compatriots!

Large-scale work is being carried out in our country to diversify the national economy and widely introduce innovations. In this regard, we are pleased with the work carried out to create high-tech industries in the structure of the Ministry of Textile Industry of Turkmenistan, to increase the range and volume of competitive products made from local raw materials. In particular, enterprises producing yarn from cotton fiber, various fabrics, and sewing products make a significant contribution to the intensive development of the economy. Currently, high-quality, environmentally friendly textile products of the brands "Gala", "Goza", "Wada", "Nusaý", "Bedew", "Bürgüt", "Akpamyk", "Merw", "Jeýtun", "Mäne" are in high demand in the domestic and foreign markets.

A lot of work is also being done to preserve and improve the national art of handmade carpet weaving of the Turkmen people. Our handmade carpets are famous for their unsurpassed beauty and high quality. In this direction, the activities of the enterprises of the State Association "Turkmenhaly" are carried out, in particular, to bring to future generations the methods of creating handmade Turkmen carpets with their colorful palette, ancient ornaments and patterns, as well as restoring the original classical samples. The exquisite handmade carpets decorating our homes are made according to the orders of not only domestic but also foreign consumers. This increases the global fame of Turkmen carpets, which are a magnificent heritage of the artistic culture of our people.

The current large-scale Exhibition of the shopping complex of Turkmenistan will allow assessing the development of the textile industry of the country, the national art of hand carpet weaving.
