Astana Motors has been awarded by Kazakhstan’s Government as the country’s major employer. The award was presented to company CEO Beknur Nessipbayev within the framework of the Kazakhstan Global Investment Roundtable (KGIR-2022) in Astana.

Now, the company employs 5 thousand people: two plants — Hyundai Trans Kazakhstan and Hyundai Trans Auto, 13 distributorships and 34 dealerships in all regions of Kazakhstan as well as companies engaged in related activities. This year, we start construction of car component plants and a multi-brand car plant for the production of China’s Сhery, Haval and Changan vehicles, which will all give another 2,500 new jobs. Our employees are provided with social benefits, comfortable working conditions, respectable wages, training and career opportunities,” Beknur Nessipbayev, Astana Motors CEO, said.
