Lithuanian-Kyrgyz Business Forum

Lithuanian transit companies propose to become a "window to Europe" for Kyrgyzstan. This was announced on June 16, 2022 in Bishkek at the Lithuanian-Kyrgyz Business Forum with the participation of Lithuanian Consul General in Almaty Gvidas Kerusauskas, Ambassador at Large of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Lithuania Andrius Pulokos, as well as Vice President of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Kyrgyz Republic Elmira Bataeva.

As an active member of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Kyrgyz Republic, LEX Law Firm, along with representatives of the Lithuanian National Road Carriers Association, Business Councils of the Confederation of Lithuanian Industrialists, major logistics and transit companies, suppliers, procurers and the business community of Kyrgyzstan, took part in the event.

Lithuania was noted as one of the leaders in Europe in transport and logistics services with a developed system of all types of transportation and is deeply interested in new personnel in the form of drivers from Kyrgyzstan. This factor can serve as a great opportunity for employment and exchange of experience between Lithuania and Kyrgyzstan.

The Lithuanian business community has shown great interest in supplying steel products, oil products, fertilisers, grain crops, cotton, feed additives, chemicals for light and other industries, and textiles from Kyrgyzstan.

Memorandum between the Association of International Road Carriers of the Kyrgyz Republic “AMAP KR” and the Lithuanian national association of road carriers “LINAVA” was signed at this forum.

The business delegation meeting moved smoothly into B2B, where there were many negotiations and discussions on the development prospects of entrepreneurs in the two countries.

LEX Law Firm would like to express its great appreciation to the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Kyrgyz Republic for its involvement and the opportunity to participate in this business forum.
