Uttar Pradesh is rapidly emerging as a hub of enterprise and innovation, driven by the proactive industrial policies of the Yogi Adityanath-led government. With a strong emphasis on MSME growth and investment-friendly reforms, the state has fostered a thriving industrial ecosystem.

As a result, 235 industrial estates, comprising 77 full-scale and 158 mini estates are now operational across the state, significantly accelerating MSME expansion and job creation.

947 Industrial plots

To further support this momentum, the state has developed 947 industrial plots and 10,179 sheds dedicated to MSME units. The infrastructural push has paved the way for the establishment and operation of over 11,126 enterprises, opening up numerous opportunities for entrepreneurs and job seekers alike.

Moreover, efforts are underway to establish 15 new industrial estates across 10 districts. Spread across a total of 764.31 acres, these upcoming estates will offer 872 new plots aimed at attracting and nurturing MSME ventures.

Flatted Factory Complex in Kanpur

Kanpur and Agra are among Uttar Pradesh’s oldest industrial cities, and both have a strong presence of MSME units. In Kanpur, a Flatted Factory Complex has been built over an area of 15,500 square feet, with 162 shops and units officially allotted for MSME use. This complex is now fully functional.

Similarly, in Agra, a larger Flatted Factory Complex has been developed across 38,500 square feet. It houses 200 MSME shops and units and is also operating at full capacity. The complex is helping businesses with advanced  infrastructure and facilities.

Central government Approved

Inspired by the success in Kanpur and Agra, similar Flatted Factory Complex projects are now being developed in Ghaziabad and Lucknow. These projects have already received approval from the central government, and construction and related development work is underway.

In Ghaziabad, the complex will cover 9,734.21 square feet and provide space for 40 shops and units. In Lucknow, the complex will span 7,901.6 square feet, with space for 48 shops and units once completed.

MSMEs set up

All these complexes are being built with future needs in mind. They are designed to help MSMEs set up their businesses with lower capital investment, offering ready-to-use spaces. These efforts are part of the Uttar Pradesh MSME Promotion Policy introduced by the Yogi government in 2022.
