SCZone is on the hunt for investments:<\/strong> The Suez Canal Economic Zone (SCZone) is courting Chinese investors to reel in USD hundreds of mns in new investments as part of its first international promotional roadshow for FY 2025-2026, according to a statement<\/a>. The SCZone\u2019s delegation, led by SCZone head Walid Gamal El Din, made its first stop in Shenzhen to pitch the zone\u2019s offerings.<\/p>\n

Hong Kong-based clothing manufacturer Crystal International Group is looking at<\/strong> establishing a USD 250-300 mn textile factory in the Qantara West Industrial Zone.<\/strong> The proposed project would span 1.5 mn sqm and is expected to create 30k\u201335k jobs, with Crystal International Group planning to export all of its output from the factory.<\/p>\n

Also in the meeting lineup:<\/strong> The delegation separately discussed future avenues for cooperation and investments in ports and logistics with representatives from Hong Kong\u2019s Hutchison Ports, which operates a container terminal in Sokhna Port. The Sokhna Port terminal investment \u2014 which was announced in 2023 as part of a USD 1.6 bn bundle<\/a> to construct new terminals at the Ain Sokhna and Dekheila ports \u2014 is estimated to have cost USD 250 mn. <\/p>\n

ICYMI-<\/strong> Construction on the Ain Sokhna terminal began in July 2024<\/a> by construction firm EDECS, with operations slated for January 2026. EDECS has secured USD 93 mn<\/a> in credit facilities from NBK Egypt to finance the project. Hutchison Ports previously entered a consortium<\/a> with Cosco and CMA CGM to construct the new terminal.<\/p>\n

In numbers: <\/strong>The SCZone has attracted more than USD 4 bn<\/a> in Chinese investments over the past three years. Egypt is targeting USD 16 bn<\/a> in total Chinese FDI by 2029. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
