Promagroleasing to supply 400 railcars to Kazakhstan
MINSK, 11 July (BelTA) - The national leasing operator OAO Promagroleasing with the support of Eximgarant of Belarus has concluded international leasing contracts with the Kazakh company for the supply of 400 railcars to Kazakhstan, BelTA learned from Eximgarant of Belarus.
The Belarusian railcars manufactured by Mogilev carriage plant will be used by major manufacturers of Kazakhstan to ensure timely and quality cargo delivery. The total cost of the delivery (hopper cars for the transportation of cement) under leasing contracts is more than $31 million. Political and commercial risks under this transaction are insured by Eximgarant of Belarus.

The Belarusian machinery was supplied to Russia (119 units), Czechia (38 units), Ukraine (37 units), Mozambique (35), Armenia (11) and Georgia (4), the inflow of foreign currency totaling $6.1 million.
