The total volume of purchases in the domestic market at the end of the year was 2.16 billion rubles, which exceeds the figure for 2020 by 180 million rubles, the press service of the enterprise reports. As noted, annually about 300 small and medium-sized enterprises of the region - suppliers of goods and services - are provided with constant orders from Avtotor in various areas of activity.

Thanks to the development of the localization program and the deepening of Avtotor's production technology, enterprises have been created and are developing in the Kaliningrad region, which have already launched the production of various types of auto components, such as multimedia systems, climate systems, electrical wiring, bumpers, seats, exhaust gas systems and etc. In the second half of 2021, deliveries to Avtotor were started by a resident of the SEZ in the Kaliningrad region, HW Auto Solution. The volume of supplies of plastic elements at the end of the year was more than 100 million rubles. The actual volume of investments in the construction of a new production site for molding and painting plastic has already amounted to more than 721.5 million rubles. The planned order volume from Avtotor for 2022 is estimated at more than 250 million rubles. Within the framework of this project, tests were carried out and approval was received for the use of Russian raw materials in the production of plastic products.

This will make it possible to form a cycle for the production of plastic products consisting entirely of Russian components. Currently, more than 30 different types of superstructures are installed on commercial vehicles manufactured by Avtotor, including manufactured ones at enterprises in the Kaliningrad region.
