The KAMAZ brand is widely known in the CIS and abroad. The predecessor of KAMAZ Joint Stock Company - KAMAZ Production Association - was established back in 1969 when the government passed a resolution on the construction of a large complex of plants in the Republic of Tatarstan with the capacity to produce 150,000 trucks and 250,000 diesel engines per year. The ground-breaking ceremony of the new construction project took place on 13 December 1969, while 16 February 1976, saw the first truck roll off the assembly line. 12 years later, in October 1988, KAMAZ produced its millionth truck. In its first quarter of a century, KAMAZ underwent significant changes in its financial and business operations and was the first company in this country to embark on the path of real economic independence by setting up a shareholding company on June 25, 1990. Directors of the corporate office, employees, major shareholders, all in all 21 people, became members of the Board. The Chairman of the Board is Mr. Nikolay I.Bekh. KAMAZ is today the world's eighth largest producer of trucks with a loading capacity of over 1 tonne, and the largest producer of trucks with a loading capacity of over 7 tonnes.
