Gossnab

Gossnab, short for the State Supply Committee of the USSR, was a Soviet government agency responsible for planning and distributing materials and goods across the economy. It managed the allocation of resources to various industries, ensuring that factories received the necessary supplies to produce goods. Gossnab played a crucial role in the planned economy of the Soviet Union, where the government controlled production and distribution rather than relying on market forces. This organization aimed to maximize efficiency and meet the needs of the state, reflecting the principles of central planning in the Soviet economic system.
