International businessman and founder of Inkas Vehicle LLC, Ulugbekhon Maksumov has decided to do in his home country, Uzbekistan what he has very much excelled at in his adopted country of United Arab Emirates. That is producing armored vehicles both for security and luxury. And for almost a decade Inkas has been synonymous with quality, cutting-edge technology and sheer luxury delivered with impeccable craftsmanship.
But instead of bringing Inkas to Uzbekistan, the company is remodelled under a new name known as Aksum VPK. Aksum VPK in substance is pretty much an old wine in a new bottle, but a very big bottle going by what sources have revealed about the company.
Confirming the model for Aksum VPK, the spokesperson for the company says, "Aksum VPK is similar in operation to Inkas. It is like Inkas reborn with a new name and located in Uzbekistan. The only difference is that Aksum VPK is much bigger with bigger factory but the activity is absolutely the same. The facility is said to be 300,000sq.ft with production capacity of 100 military vehicles per month.
If both Inkas and Aksum VPK share the same soul in the person of Maksumov, one should expect that the same ideals would be the driving force behind both companies.
"At Inkas, we believe that safety is in a perpetual state of evolution. We live in a world of change and seemingly invincible threats. In order to move forward we must constantly innovate and direct all our efforts towards a better world, leading by example. Safety is a basic human right, and one that fuels our passion. We invest all our resources into keeping that human right alive. We've taken it upon ourselves to explore the unexplored, research the unthinkable, probe deeper and find new ways to prevent disaster. Herein lies our mission - a better world in which we share that sense of security. Safety," Maksumov had preached in his mission statement at Inkas, it is therefore worth noting if the rules of the game would remain the same
The brain and muscle behind Aksum VPK says he is in the business of saving lives to guarantee peace of mind in safety and security, it is thus pertinent to listen to him and see how events unfold. But if his antecedents at Inkas is anything worth its salt, Aksum VPK is indeed another force building momentum to ruffle the defence industry in Europe.
According to the company's spokesperson, VPK is an abbreviation in Russian language, meaning military industrial company. When fully translated into English, hence the tagline within logo design Military Industrial Company.
Aksum VPK is a member of Aksum Group of Companies which include Aksum Marine Industries LLC operating in the marine and naval armored engineering industry in Umm Al Quwain, UAE.
