3,000 cars queuing at Belarus’ border to enter Poland
The establishment of new production facilities in district centers and small towns not only creates jobs and generates budget revenues but also contributes to the overall development of the district. This was stated to journalists in Sharkovshchina by the Chairman of the House of Representatives of the National Assembly, the President's authorized representative in the Vitebsk region, Igor Sergeenko, after the opening of a direct-squeezed juice production enterprise, as reported by a BELTA correspondent.
Igor Sergeenko participated in the enterprise's opening ceremony. The new production facility has created 20 jobs for local residents, with an additional 30 jobs expected in the future. What benefits do such enterprises bring to small towns? "New jobs, budget revenues, and most importantly, it's the development of the district, we retain personnel. Currently, about 6,000 people live in Sharkovshchina. It's a very small urban settlement that is acquiring a new look – two years ago, the 'Dozhynki' festival was held here, and new facilities are appearing. We would like to see more of this in other regions of our country," he noted.
The new plant in Sharkovshchina was built as part of the "One District - One Project" initiative, and Igor Sergeenko emphasized that it has a positive impact on the economic development of the districts. "Thanks to the implementation of this program, the economic landscape of our country is changing. It is evident today that in such a turbulent world, only a strong government acting in the interests of the people and relying on a robust economy and domestic business can preserve the country. Today, our country's economy is being built brick by brick from such facilities," added the Chairman of the House of Representatives.
Igor Sergeenko also took part in the opening of the renovated fire and rescue unit in Sharkovshchina and visited several agricultural enterprises in the district.
