The Italian company TechnoAlpine will install the artificial snow-making equipment in Gudauri. The agreement between the Mountain Resorts Development Company subordinated to the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development of Georgia and the Italian company was signed in Italy.
After the visit of the Georgian premier to South Tyrol in March 2017, TechnoAlpin was able to conclude a contract worth 2.4 million euro. Aleksandre Onoprishvili, who heads up the national ski resort development company, was in Bolzano on August 17, 2018 for the signing of the contract.
This is the first project in Georgia for TechnoAlpin. The contract is for the installation of more than 80 snow guns and the expansion of several pumping stations. The construction phase for the project is due to begin immediately, and the ski resort of Gudauri in the Greater Caucasus is scheduled to open for business in November 2018 after its redevelopment. “The short lead time is no problem for TechnoAlpin. As an international company, we know how to deal with such challenges. Nothing should stand in the way of opening on time for the ski season,” said a confident Christian Jocher, Area Manager for the Caucasus at TechnoAlpin.
