Construction &
Housing

Sustainable development sits at the core of Uzbekistan’s construction and housing sector. With the government wanting to build a brighter future for the country’s people, there have been significant improvements to sanitation and the availability of fresh drinking water, along with investment in more energy-efficient projects.

Affordable housing programmes such as Obod Qishloq" (Prosperous Village) and "Obod Mahalla" (Prosperous Neighbourhood) and Uzbekistan’s green mortgage markets – where banks offer lower rates for homes designed to reduce water and energy consumption – showcase the positive steps the country is making in moving towards a sustainable future for the next generation.

Public-private partnerships (PPPs) are also driving major developments, including two projects in Bukhara and Namangan totalling $206.2 million, not to mention the ambitious Olympic Town development.

The construction sector alone contributes 7% to the country’s GDP and employs an estimated 1.5 million workers across different construction related roles.
