The creation of the Industrial Park is underway under the general plan in Aghdam. It will be divided into social and technical zones and will have the food, light industry, services sectors, and big industrial enterprises. The bases for the sale of building materials and a park for vehicles will be created in the Industry Park. It is planned to open enterprises producing building materials, meat, and dairy factories, establish wine and feed production, produce and process fertilizers, organize the packing of agricultural products, and produce canned fruits and vegetables.
