Catalogue of cluster members Cluster of Automotive Industry of Samara Region Cluster of Automotive Industry of Samara Region Dear colleagues! The Samara region is one of the leading industrial centers of Russia. In volume of industrial production, it consistently ranks in the top ten among all Russian regions. Automobile production is one of foundations for the development of region’s economy, and it performs a serious social function.

The Cluster of Automotive Industry of Samara Region (CAI SR) is a meaningful one in Russia, because it includes the entire production cycle - from the production of automotive components and assembly of cars to the distribution and service. The сluster includes a strategic company - PJSC AVTOVAZ, which is the flagship of domestic automobile industry and one of the largest producers of passenger cars in Russia and in Europe. Manufacturers of automotive components that are present in the сluster produce and supply steering, suspension, clutch, climate control, wiping, noise insulation systems, as well as batteries, wheel disks, seats, plastic and stamped parts, etc. The majority of сluster members, which are first-tier suppliers, are able to develop independently products and processes, and have sufficiently high level Eduard Karlovich of the production system, the financial stability, the quality management system Vaino and the supply discipline.

PJSC AVTOVAZ considers the сluster as an efficient tool to support mentioned areas of activities. The synergistic effect provides wide opportunities for the cluster members: from the inclusion into the base of official suppliers of PJSC AVTOVAZ to exports to Alliance Renault-Nissan foreign plants. This will be possible if suppliers reach the required quality indicators and competitive price not only at the local, but also at the international level. I am sure that the сluster’s companies have the necessary potential for it.
