EFFECTIVE DEVELOPMENT OF THE FOOD MARKET INFRASTRUCTURE OF THE KYRGYZ REPUBLIC IN THE CONTEXT OF ECONOMIC INTEGRATION

Abstract

This article examines the issue of developing the infrastructure of the food market of the Kyrgyz Republic in the context of modern economic integration. The main focus of the study is the analysis of the state of logistics, warehousing, processing, financial, and information components that directly affect the sustainable functioning of the food market. The article particularly emphasizes the role of infrastructure in ensuring a stable supply of high-quality food products to the domestic market, and demonstrates how insufficiently developed elements hinder the overall efficiency of the agricultural sector.

It is also noted that the impact of integration within the Eurasian Economic Union is twofold: on the one hand, it opens new market opportunities, while on the other hand, it intensifies competition. Scientifically grounded recommendations are developed to improve infrastructure efficiency, reduce product losses, and increase added value. The article also highlights the difference between quantitative growth and qualitative development: despite improvements in certain indicators, qualitative changes remain insufficient for the stable functioning of the market chain. As a result of the study, practical directions for improving the infrastructure of the food market are proposed.
