History

The company was founded in 1995. In the same year, the company started its operations in Turkmenistan on a landscaping project for the Ministry of Health.

The company has earned first-signed contracts for the construction of buildings in Turkmenistan. By the end of September 2011, the company built 109 facilities, of which 106 were in Turkmenistan.

Polimeks has extremely close links to the current President of Turkmenistan, Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow, with Polimeks winning the contract to construct and renovate numerous large buildings in Turkmenistan. The company's projects in Turkmenistan include: Ashgabat Velodrome, Turkmenistan Independence Monument, Arch of Neutrality, Monument to the Constitution, Turkmenistan Tower, Alem Cultural and Entertainment Center, Turkmenbashi Airport, the Wedding Palace, fountain complex "Oguzhan and Sons", Ashgabat Flagpole and many other large projects.[1] In January 2013, the company received a major contract to build the Ashgabat International Airport. At a cost of $ 2.2 billion, it is the largest construction project a Turkish firm has done abroad.[2]

In 2007 in Moscow, the company built the first Ritz-Carlton hotel in Russia, on the site of the demolished high-rise hotel "Intourist", at the beginning of Tverskaya Street. In Turkey, the company built a hotel in Eskisehir and a paper mill in Kazakhstan.[3]

The company has offices in Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan and China.

According to the American magazine Engineering News-Record, Polimeks occupies 40th place in the ranking of "225 largest international contractors".[4]
