The move, outlined in a meeting held last week between Hirdaramani Group director Sid Hirdaramani and General Authority for Investment and Free Zones (GAFI) CEO Dr. Mohamed Awad, is part of Egypt's continued push to attract foreign direct investment, particularly in export-oriented manufacturing. According to GAFI, Hirdaramani Group intends to establish Egypt as a regional centre for manufacturing and exports to global markets, leveraging what the company described as Egypt's "competitive advantages". He stated that such investments help integrate Egypt further into global supply chains and support the development of local supplier industries capable of meeting high international standards. Hirdaramani recognised the measures Egypt has taken to improve its investment climate, noting the Group views Egypt as a strategic platform for enhancing its manufacturing footprint and export reach.
