Doing Business In Kazakhstan
Kazakhstan is the 9th largest country in the world, (the largest land-locked) and is located in central Asia, it is also one of the most sparsely populated with an estimated population of around 17.6 million.
The country has a dramatically-variable continental climate. In the cold and lengthy winter, temperatures as low as -40°C are not uncommon, as opposed to 40°C sweltering heat in the summer.
Kazakhstan is a republic, with the government and many large state companies based in the country’s capital city Astana, which has a fast-growing population. The city of Almaty, the previous capital, is still a commercial hub, with a much larger population than the capital. Other principal cities include Aktau, Atyrau, Karaganda, Shymkent and Pavlodar.
