Gross Regional Product (GRP) of the Brest Region increased by 3.4% in January-August. This was reported by chairman of Brest Oblast executive committee Petr Parkhomchik, relayed by BELTA correspondent.

"Positive dynamics is maintained across all directions of financial and economic activity. There is slight underperformance on some individual indicators. For GRP, the growth rate is 103.4%, and the volume of industrial production is 105%," noted Petr Parkhomchik.

He called for adding a construction complex. Meanwhile, builders have fulfilled their obligations to build housing, including for those in need of improved living conditions, rental properties. The region head noted that investments in the region fell slightly short. In this regard, he praised the good work of Brest, Ivanovsky, Pinsk, and Prizhansky districts.

"Export dynamics reached the 2025 level at 22%. Brest and Baranovichy are performing well, partly thanks to a new investment project implemented in the city. When there are investments, results always follow later, believes chairman of Brest Oblast executive committee. - I will give another example. The head of one of the districts is visiting Brazil. The goal is a business project with partners to create specialized agricultural machinery. In a short period, phone negotiations and video conferences were conducted. They went to negotiate the creation of a joint enterprise with equipment production on the territory of the Brest Region."

Petr Parkhomchik is satisfied with the results in exporting tourist services. According to operational data, growth stands at 19% compared to the same period in 2025.
