More logistics for a growing Uzbekistan: Gebrüder Weiss expands its presence

Leveraging a proven track record for reliability, the international logistics company advances its expansion strategy

Tashkent / Lauterach, January 15, 2026. As of January 1, 2026, Gebrüder Weiss has upgraded its Tashkent office from a representative office to a full national organization for Uzbekistan. With this expansion, Gebrüder Weiss is responding to the growing need for efficient logistics solutions in Uzbekistan. International customers as well as local companies increasingly require reliable transport and supply chain services in the country, particularly in the agricultural machinery sector. To support this demand, Gebrüder Weiss manages the transport of oversized agricultural and construction equipment to Central Asia.

“We continue to invest in Uzbekistan because we believe in the future of this market and want to support our customers in their expansion into Central Asia with reliable logistics processes,” says Thomas Moser, Regional Manager Black Sea/CIS at Gebrüder Weiss.

Uzbekistan’s economic upswing is indeed continuing. In 2025, gross domestic product grew by around seven percent compared to the previous year, while growth of approximately six percent is forecast for both 2026 and 2027. Industry, agriculture, and foreign trade are all on the rise. Reforms and tax incentives are making the country increasingly attractive to foreign investors and are driving demand for high-performance logistics and transport solutions.

Strengthening Eurasian land transport corridors
Uzbekistan is playing an increasingly important role in the flow of goods between Europe and Asia. Together with Gebrüder Weiss locations in Turkey, Georgia, Armenia, Kazakhstan, and China, the Central Asian country is strengthening Eurasian land routes. The company has been systematically expanding these connections for many years in order to offer businesses reliable alternatives to air and sea freight – particularly for large-volume industrial and agricultural goods.

The new national organization will be headed by Kamil Ernazarov, who has held a management position in Tashkent since 2019. He describes the situation in the country as follows: “Many companies in Uzbekistan are facing the challenge of making their supply chains more reliable and internationally competitive. With our expanded range of services, we can support them in a targeted manner.”

Gebrüder Weiss currently employs four people in Uzbekistan and offers land transport services (groupage and full truckloads) as well as air, sea, and rail freight. In the medium term, the service portfolio will be expanded to include warehouse logistics services.
