Synchronously with the beginning of the ceremonial meeting, the factory gates opened, and the BELAZ territory instantly filled with visitors. The guests could visit the workshops and examine the products of our enterprise. On this day, more than twenty BELAZ and MoAZ vehicles of various purposes were on display for visitors: there were both serially produced and experimental samples of promising developments, that is, the present and future of the enterprise's success, as well as retro dump trucks - our glorious past. Huge queues of people wishing to climb onto the dump trucks formed at the BELAZs to take pictures on the decks of these giants.
