ARETI International Group has completed its exit from Turkmenistan, ceasing all business activities and interests in the country.
The company is now concentrating on energy, infrastructure, and innovation investments in Europe, North America, and the Middle East.
Founded by international businessman Igor Makarov, ARETI International Group, a Cyprus-based diversified energy and investment holding, has officially concluded its departure from Turkmenistan.
The exit process began in 2022, with the formal completion achieved by April 2025, leading to no remaining affiliated entities or operational presence in Turkmenistan.
ARETI formerly engaged in energy projects in Turkmenistan but shifted its focus due to geopolitical changes, regulatory shifts, and emerging opportunities in other regions.
This shift aligns with the company's strategic reorientation towards markets with potential for sustainable growth.
ARETI is now actively seeking investment opportunities in energy, infrastructure, and innovation sectors in Europe, North America, and the Middle East while no longer having business interests in Russia.
The exit from Turkmenistan is a response to changing global market conditions and internal business priorities, done in compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.
Aside from commercial ventures, ARETI remains involved in philanthropic activities, emphasizing cycling, youth sports, and healthy lifestyles in Cyprus and globally.
The company continues to support charitable and cultural initiatives in line with its values and long-term vision.
