Smolensk region attracted 220 million rubles for a single regional subsidy for the industry
Smolensk region actively uses federal support to strengthen industrial potential

The Smolensk region actively uses federal support to strengthen its industrial potential. The key instrument is a single regional subsidy, which is directed to the recapitalization of the Regional Fund for Industrial Development (RFID). Over the past five years, the region has received more than 220 million rubles, which has significantly increased the capabilities of enterprises.
This year, the work continues: in 2026, the Smolensk region successfully passed the selection of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia and will be able to attract another 46.8 million rubles from the federal budget in 2027.
These funds allow RDIF to provide enterprises with preferential loans at rates from 3 to 8% per annum for up to five years. The funds can be used to purchase equipment, modernize production and expand production. Thanks to such support, the capitalization of the fund exceeded 1.4 billion rubles. Last year alone, 20 such loans totaling 646 million rubles were issued.
The result of systematic work is already visible: investments in the industry of the region increased by 32%, and the revenue of manufacturing enterprises reached 540 billion rubles. Governor Vasily Anokhin stressed that each ruble of federal support works for the development of the region, the modernization of factories and the creation of new jobs.
