Carpets of Turkmenistan: From a Family Craft to a Thriving Business

Carpet weaving in Turkmenistan is not just a craft, but an entire art, passed down from generation to generation. Traditional national carpets, with their unique patterns and rich history, are the heritage of the people.

A striking example of the successful preservation of traditions and entrepreneurship in this area is the Umarov family from the Lebap velayat. Starting with a small family business, they managed to create a large enterprise producing a wide range of carpets and rugs. Their success is the result not only of talent and hard work, but also of state support aimed at developing small and medium businesses.

Thanks to the state program to support folk crafts, the Umarov family was able to expand production, purchase modern equipment and enter new markets. Today, their products are in great demand both domestically and abroad. The export of silk carpets to Uzbekistan is a clear indication of the high quality and demand for turkmen products.

The success of the Umarov family is not an exception, but rather a rule. More and more people in Turkmenistan are engaged in carpet weaving. This not only helps preserve national traditions, but also creates new job places, especially for women.

The state actively supports the development of carpet weaving, providing entrepreneurs with preferential loans, raw materials and helping with the sale of products. Thanks to such measures, carpets are becoming increasingly popular in the world, strengthening the country's image as a center of traditional crafts and high quality.

The future of turkmen carpet weaving looks very promising. State support ensures stable development of the industry. There is no doubt that turkmen carpets will continue to please the eye and conquer the hearts of people all over the world.
