The market of auto chemicals and lubricants in Uzbekistan demonstrates steady growth, due to the increase in the number of cars and the development of car service in the country. According to statistics, at the beginning of the year, more than 4 million cars owned by individuals were registered in the country.
With the increase in the number of cars, the demand for lubricants increases. Both international and local brands are represented in the market of auto chemicals and lubricants in Uzbekistan. Among foreign manufacturers, such well-known brands as Castrol, Mobil, Shell, Total and Liqui Moly stand out, offering a wide range of oils, greases and auto chemicals. Local companies, such as UzAutoOil, which produce lubricants that meet international standards, are also active.
Meridian Tempo is the official representative of Liqui Moly. Company specialist Bakhodir Makhkamov told how the segment is developing, what its features are and why automation remains an important requirement in business development.
The situation on the local market…
In Uzbekistan, there is a growing interest in the products of large and well-known brands. Modern consumers are beginning to attach particular importance to quality, which has become a key factor when choosing products. However, quality is not the only aspect; reliability of delivery also plays an important role. We understand that on-time delivery is not just a commitment, but the foundation of trust on which our business is built. If we promise to deliver a product on a certain day, we must fulfill this promise. Late or untimely fulfillment of an order can undermine customer trust and negatively affect our reputation. This order is important in any business, and we strive to meet the highest standards.
Increasing demand...
The demand for our products continues to grow, and this has been observed in the past few years. This is due to the overall increase in the number of cars in Uzbekistan, which, in turn, leads to an increased interest in auto parts and auto chemicals. According to statistics, in 2023, the number of registered cars in the country increased by 15%, which contributes to the growth in demand for related products.
With the increase in the number of cars on the roads, there is also an influx of new competitors, which emphasizes the importance of quality and trust in building relationships with customers. The demand for quality spare parts and auto products continues to gradually increase, and we are confident in our ability to maintain competitiveness and confidence in the quality of our products in this highly competitive market.
The quality of lubricants and auto chemicals is becoming an increasingly important factor for car enthusiasts, which encourages companies to introduce innovative technologies and expand their product range. As a result, Uzbekistan is becoming an attractive platform for investment and development of new business initiatives in the field of auto chemicals, which opens up prospects for manufacturers and distributors seeking to offer quality solutions for vehicle owners.

Product portfolio …
We offer a wide range of products, which includes more than 2 thousand items. Our products are divided into several segments to meet the various needs of consumers. We offer both premium products and more affordable options for those who drive a lot and are looking for high-quality, but budget solutions.
This diversity allows us to cover more than 60% of the consumer segment in Uzbekistan, as customers value the ability to choose depending on their needs and financial capabilities. This confirms the growing interest in our products, as the demand for affordable goods increases by 10% per year, which makes our products more relevant to a wider audience.
Automation system…
The implementation of automation systems has had a significant impact on various aspects of our work. First of all, automation has allowed us to save a lot of time, which freed our employees from routine tasks and allowed them to focus on more strategic areas of the business. For example, automatic reports and data analytics eliminate the need to manually collect information, which increases the speed of decision-making and reduces the likelihood of errors.
Automation has improved our internal communication. Project and workflow management systems provide transparency of tasks and deadlines, which facilitates better coordination between departments. As a result, the implementation of automation has not only increased our efficiency, but also significantly improved the quality of services we provide to our clients.
What will the market be like in 5 years...
In the next five years, Uzbekistan will face major changes in the automotive industry, especially with the growing interest in electric vehicles and environmentally friendly technologies. The emergence of new models of electric vehicles already indicates the market's adaptation to global trends, but this will not reduce the demand for traditional spare parts and accessories. Consumers will become more knowledgeable and demanding of quality, actively looking for products that meet modern requirements for environmental sustainability, which opens up new opportunities for manufacturers of both traditional and innovative solutions.

Innovation as a driver of market development...
Innovation is a key factor in the development of our segments, especially in the automotive industry, which is rapidly developing and saturated with new technologies in Uzbekistan. It is important that we offer products that meet modern requirements and market needs, which requires us to constantly update and improve our products. We are confident that the success of our work will be determined by high quality, compliance with deadlines and timely delivery of innovative solutions, which will allow us to remain competitive and meet the needs of consumers.
About competition...
Competition in today's market is really high, especially compared to the situation ten years ago, when the market was developing at a rapid pace. Previously, foreign companies dominated, but now the number of local manufacturers has increased significantly. To maintain our position in a highly competitive environment, we focus on control, timely delivery of goods to the end consumer, quality assurance and affordability. I believe that these aspects are key, as customers expect us to fulfill their obligations. Timely delivery not only strengthens our brand image, but also meets consumer requirements.
Thank you for the interesting conversation and we wish your business prosperity!
