Industrial Enterprise Localization In The Development Of Regional Economy
Abstract
The article analyzes on a scientific basis the existing problems associated with the location of industrial enterprises in the development of the regional economy, their economic, social and infrastructural causes and effective solutions to eliminate them. The location of industrial enterprises is considered an important factor in the rational use of economic resources, optimization of the transport and logistics system, balancing the labor market and ensuring regional stability. The study systematically analyzes the main problems of location - uneven distribution of production capacities, unbalanced development of infrastructure, centralization of investment flows, migration of labor resources and disruption of the ecological balance. Along with the theoretical foundations of these problems, the article covers scientifically based directions for solving them, including clustering, the "smart location" model, mechanisms for forming innovative infrastructure and sustainable energy systems. The results of the study put forward practical recommendations on ensuring regional economic balance, increasing production capacity and optimal location of industrial enterprises on the example of the Namangan region.
