Сontainer terminal "Zhetysu" launches operations in Almaty

Legal Digest News
A key project in developing Kazakhstan's transit potential. This is the result of a partnership between JSC "Kedentransservice" (a subsidiary of "KTZ") and China's Xi'an Free Trade Port Construction and Operation.

The launch of the large-scale terminal directly connects Almaty with key nodes of global supply chains.

  • Capacity: 115,000 TEU per year
  • Area: 9.8 hectares, including warehouses (23,400 m²) and truck parking (8,900 m²)
  • First train already arrived from Xi'an (China) – part of the "One Belt, One Road" strategy

Kazakhstan strengthens its position as Central Asia's transport hub by developing logistics centers in Khorgos, Lianyungang, Aktau, and now Almaty.

New opportunities for regional businesses:

  • Reduced cargo delivery times from China and other countries
  • Expanded export capabilities for Kazakhstani companies
  • New job creation in logistics and related industries

If your business involves import, export, or transit, you can now:

  1. Optimize logistics via Almaty
  2. Reduce costs through cargo consolidation
  3. Access new markets using upgraded infrastructure
