A textile enterprise will be built in Nooken district of Jalal-Abad region. Press service of the Cabinet of Ministers of Kyrgyzstan reported.

It can produce up to 1 million units of finished products per year — men’s, women’s and children’s suits. Export volume is estimated at $15 million annually.
