Typical problems of the industry of South Ossetia are the depreciation of fixed assets, the lack of working capital, the absence or decrease in demand for manufactured products, and the shortage of qualified personnel. Almost all operating enterprises are unprofitable. Many enterprises operate worn-out, obsolete equipment, which negatively affects the quality of manufactured goods.

The main problems of the agro-industrial complex of South Ossetia:

The backwardness of the material and technical base and technologies of agricultural production;
Reduction of the able-bodied population in rural areas;
Incomplete processing of agricultural land;
Decline in the number of cattle;
The low level of development of such industries as sheep and goat breeding, poultry farming, viticulture, growing vegetables and fruits.

Opening a business in the Republic of South Ossetia today is quite promising. The authorities are interested in foreign investment to maintain and develop the state economy, creating the most comfortable conditions for both investors and entrepreneurs.

It should be noted that certain types of activities in the territory of South Ossetia are subject to licensing, such activities include construction, sale of alcohol and tobacco products, pharmaceutical activities, etc. If the required package of documents is available, the license is issued as soon as possible, the license fees are lower than in Russia and depend on the type of license issued.

Thus, if you decide to open a business in South Ossetia, start by looking for the right idea. At the initial stage, it is important to analyze the market and choose a popular direction.

The state needs specialists in the field of agriculture, printing, designers, ecologists, veterinarians, agronomists, computer scientists. In the healthcare system, there is an acute shortage of such medical professions as a phthisiatrician, psychiatrist, oncologist, orthopedist, narrow specialists in the field of culture are needed. But the quotas for many of these specialties remain unused, since only lawyers, economists and dentists are still “in the price”.
