Five Pillars of the Plan:
* Optimizing Imports: Prioritizing local production of high-quality goods that meet market demands.
* Maximizing Exports: Leveraging Egypt's raw materials and established industries to increase foreign currency reserves and support the economy.
* Addressing Unemployment: Enhancing skills and craftsmanship among the workforce to improve industry quality and attract foreign investment.
* Supporting Struggling Factories: Facilitating their reoperation and expansion through efficient governance procedures.
* Industrial Development Law: Joint efforts will activate this law, expediting industrial license procedures.
Business Environment Improvements: The focus includes amending conditions in contracts issued by the Industrial Development Authority, promoting local manufacturing, and attracting foreign investment.
Minister Al-Wazir emphasized increased cooperation, frequent visits to industrial establishments, and problem-solving sessions. The goal is to swiftly issue licenses for new factories, revive idle ones, and enhance overall production quality, positioning Egypt as a significant industrial hub.
