A Chinese company won the auction for the "Askiya" market complex for 225 billion sums.

The auction for the investment project to construct a modern "Ecobazar," a trading and service complex with parking facilities at the "Askia" market in Tashkent, has concluded, as reported by the E-auksion platform.

The auction lasted for 15 minutes and ended after a single bid. The proposal was made by Sheng-Ke International, which offered 225 billion 595 million sums—5% above the starting price.

According to the data from the EGRPO, the company was registered in May 2024, with a charter capital of 68 billion sums. It specializes in construction work.

The founder of the company is TOO Sheng-Ke International, and the director is Chen Maicyuan.

It is worth noting that the investor was required to meet the following conditions:

• build an ecobazar with an area of at least 3,000 square meters;
• construct a cold storage facility with an area of at least 1,200 square meters;
• transfer the first floor of the underground parking (minimum 400 spaces) free of charge to the ownership of the company.

This project includes a large shopping complex that will feature bike parking, modern benches, Wi-Fi zones, recreational areas for the public, escalators and ramps for people with disabilities, green spaces, and round-the-clock cleanliness maintenance. Additionally, a 4-star hotel will be built next to the new market.

It is anticipated that the implementation of the project will attract $150 million in direct foreign investment and create over 1,000 new jobs.
