Belkommunmasch (also Belkommunmash ; Russian Белкоммунмаш ) is a Belarusian company based in Minsk , which specializes in the construction of trams and trolleybuses . Belkommunmasch vehicles are now used in around 40 cities in eight countries, particularly in Eastern Europe and Central Asia.

The company was founded in 1973, still during the Soviet Union , as a repair shop for trams and trolleybuses. Belkommunmasch now also supplies numerous transport companies outside Belarus.

In 2014, Stadler Rail took over the trolleybus business from Belkommunmasch, which is said to have enabled the Swiss company to generate sales in the three-digit million range.
