Important role
The Group has played a very important role in the development of local production and the development of the PVC and aluminum sector in Kazakhstan.
Beginning of development
Galaksi Group was founded in 1994 and started its business in Kazakhstan as an FMCG distributor, with the aim of investing in the production of Central Asian countries. The main business of the company is related to the production of PVC and aluminum profiles for window and door systems, pipes and fittings. Today the company conducts its business confidently in the market of Kazakhstan as well as outside of it. The company’s head office and production facilities are located in the city of Almaty.
Local manufacturing
Until 1996, the company imported all products from other countries: Turkey, Germany, China. But then it decided: instead of importing materials, they could be produced here, and changed its strategic plans, directing investments to the development of production in Kazakhstan with world quality standards. This idea found support in the Kazakhstan 2030 Strategy, aimed at the production of building materials for the reconstruction of former and implementation of new projects.
