Cairo: Minister of Transport Kamel El-Wazir met with French Ambassador Eric Chevallier to discuss the progress of the Alstom mega-industrial complex in Borg El Arab City. The meeting included key figures from the Ministries of Transport and Industry.

According to State Information Service Egypt, the discussions focused on the latest developments in constructing the complex, which will occupy 40 acres in Alexandria. Minister El-Wazir recently inspected the site, which will host two factories: one for manufacturing electrical systems and railway components and another for producing various types of moving units.

The Minister highlighted the project’s significance, which aims to fulfill local market demands and boost exports to the Middle East and Africa. Additionally, the initiative is expected to generate thousands of jobs and support the localization of industries in Egypt. This aligns with President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi’s directives to advance the moving unit industry in the country.
