The rise of the Russian Far East District (FEFD) as an attractive destination for investment in manufacturing is down to several factors - rich natural resources, abundant land, an upgraded infrastructure, unfettered access to the markets of the Eurasian European Union, and the availability of generous tax incentives.

The FEFD is a Russian federal district which shares borders with Mongolia, China and North Korea.
It is proving especially attractive to resource-intensive manufacturing industries, both upstream ones such as agriculture, aquaculture, forestry, petrochemicals and chemicals, and downstream like food processing, paper and pulp, rubber and plastics, electrical equipment, medicine and jewellery.
