Based on SWOT-analysis, the article assesses the formation and development of industrial sectors in the Nizhneamudarya economic region, and studies geographical aspects of effective use of resource potential in the development of the region's industry. The SWOT-analysis shows that the mineral resources of Karakalpakstan are very rich. Using the mineral wealth of the Sultan-Uvais mountains and the oil and gas resource potential of the Ustyurt plateau and the Aral sea region, it is possible to create poles of industrial growth based on the launch of new capacities. Khorezm region is distinguished by the fact that it has a rich industrial raw material base, which makes it possible to provide the population of the region with products of light, brick and tile, and food industry. Attention should also be paid to the availability of cheap labor force. The analysis shows that the district's strengths include a rich industrial raw material base, which allows the development of a number of heavy and light industries. Weaknesses are related to the fact that a significant part of the territory is desert, as well as to the weak development of transport infrastructure, which leads to low agricultural productivity.
